Scissors and Shears
are made for clean, accurate work. They are
scientifically designed and adjusted to an
exact cutting edge so that blade meets blade
with absolute precision from heel to point.
Each shear is fitted with a patent bolt
that can never work loose. This bolt has
a right-hand screw and a left-hand nut,
working against each other, so that a varia-
tion of adjustment is impossible. They are
less tiring than any others for no pressure is
required to keep the cutting edges together.
You are sure of satisfaction if you
ask for them by name. Every pair fully
guaranteed. We sell them.

BUICK AUTOMOBILES
A TTAINED their superiority by reason of true merit, and they maintain
this superiority through a continuance of this merit, coupled with the
adoption of all the latest improvements and a constant striving toward excellence
and "up-to dateness". THE BUICK winnings in the auto contests this year
have been made with ordinary "stock" machines, such as every purchaser gets,
and not with some specially built machine made for the purpose. This is a
point well worth considering. Note the individuals who have tried other
makes, thrown them aside, and then became perfectly satisfied in the possession
of a Buick. As the season of 1 909 has seen the Buick better than in previous
years, so will the season of '910, and all succeeding seasons, see the Buick
still further improved. We invite your inspection.

GAULARD 5 1 962
HE recently imported French Percheron Stallion, is
Txi to be found every breeding day of the year at the
>Y farm of C. H. Hagelshaw, three-fourths of a mile
"^ north of Union City, and the careful attention of those
mterested in fine horses is called to this magnificent
specimen of his family.
GAULARD was bred by M. Goupil, of Commune of St.
Bomert, France, and was foaled April 8, 1 906. His sire is Turco
55333, his dam being La Roche 37371, thus descending from
some of the best Percherons in France. He was imported to this
country in November, 1908. Although only three years old, he
weighs, when in condition, 1 900 pounds. He is of fine form and
color, and his get will be large, servicable horses.
The tendency of the times is toward heavier horses for farm
and other purposes. The importation of Gaulard is in this direction,
and no better specimen of the Percheron is to be found.
Terms, $1 5.00 to insure a standing colt.
C. H. HAGELSHAW, Owner!

'TpHE merchant will keep in mind that in a late decision of our Supreme Court,
■^ they say that we are the original and only Lamb Company, prohibiting by
injunction the use of the word "Lamb" as a corporation, either orally, written or
printed; therefore a representation of a dealer handling other than our goods, that
they are made by a "Lamb" company, would make him liable.
Imitations of our goods are now and then thrust upon the market, calling them
"Lamb Knit," "Knit on Lamb Machines," etc., etc., thereby trying to evade, to
a great extent, the injunction of our Supreme Court.

SIDNEY D. BUELL.
The name of Buell is intimately as-
sociated witli Union City and its his-
tory. The Buells were among the first
white people to settle here in the early
thirties. They were of sturdy stock
and they aided in the first develop-
ment of the place, and have ever since
taken prominent part in the business
and social life of the town. And even
today the descendants of these pioneer
Buells are among our leading people.
The first Buells to come to Union
City, or Goodwinsville, as it was then
called, were four brothers, Darius,
Justus, Chauncey . and Thomas, who
located here in 183 6 and 1837. The
first named, Darius, the father of the
subject of this sketch, was born in
Sherbourne, Chenango county. New
York, July 6, 1808. His wife was Cor-
nelia Lincoln, and when they came to
this place in 1836 there were but few
people here, and only a few log
houses. Darius Buell soon entered
into the busy pioneer life of the local-
ity and aided greatly in its develop-
ment. He built the flouring building
here, and took part in the erection of
nearly all of the first pretentious build-
ings of the new town. The interior
work of the Congregational church
building was also his and he and his
son, Sidney, unaided, prepared, match-
ed and laid the floor of the structure,
doing all of the work by hand. He
was one of the organizers of the old
Union City Iron Company, and he
helped to build the first big boat, the
"Union City," which was intended to
ply the waters of the St. Joseph river,
but which was lost on its first trip.
Later he engaged in the mercantile
line, and up to the time of his death,
in 1875, he was interested in leading
local enterprises. His estimable wife
survived him a number of years, pass-
ing away in 1S91.
Sidney D. Buell, their son, bears the
di.^tinction of being the first white
child born in Union City, this occur-
ring September 27, 1838.
He was twenty-three years of age
78
UNION CITY DIRECTORY
When, in 1861, he responded to his
country's call and enlisted in the First
Michigan Light Artillery, serving in
the various batteries of the regiment,
notably in the gallant Battery D,
familiarly known at Church's Battery.
He served all through the war and
was in many engagements.
After the war he returned to Union
City, and soon thereafter, when Cor-
bin Post, G. A. R., was organized, he
was its first adjutant, filling this posi-
tion for five years, and also being its
quartermaster for two years. Mr. Sid-
ney Buell has been closely identified
with Union City and its development.
For many years he conducted a plan-
ing mill, a heading mill and a factory
for the .manufacture of bee supplies,
but retired when his plant was de-
stroyed by fire in 1904. Since that
thne he has dealt largely in bee sup-
plies, and is the inventor of many use-
ful devices in this line.
Mr. Buell was married November
1, 1866, to Miss Margaret A. McCon-
nell, who proved a most worthy help-
meet until death claimed her, July 3,
1907. ,
]Mr. Buell was attacked by failing
health and partial blindness in 1905,
since which time he has retired from
active pursuits, although a familiar
figure upon 'our streets. His has been
a long, busy and useful life, and nearly
all of it has been spent in the old
home on North Broadway, which he
still occupies. During the past few
years his benefactions have been
many, not only to various organiza-
tions and public enterprises, but also
to the worthy and needy poor of his
acquaintance. This, indeed, seems to
be his principal pleasure, and he an-
nounces his intention of so continuing
until his time shall come to be laid to
rest beside his loved ones in beau-
tiful Riverside Cemetery.

History of Union City
The junction of the Coldwater and St. Joseph Rivers was undoubtedl\-
an attractive spot for human beings hundreds of years ago, as witness thr
many remains of the worl< of the so-called "mound builders" in this im-
mediate vicinity. Afterward the Indians made this a favorite hunting and
camping ground, and to this day there are to be found occasionally evi-
dences of their habitation and use of the territory. Late in the seventeenth
century the early French explorers made use of these rivers in pushing
their way westward into the heart of the unexplored middle west, and
their craft plied the waters of the placid St. Joseph along the whole length
of the stream. Tradition tells i:s that at al)out this time there was a
French trading post established here, its location being just south of the
present site of the present city school building, and that the proprietor
did a brisk business with the Indians who were then in this immediate
vicinity in large numbers. Hftw long the French trading post remained here
is only a inatter of conjecture. At any rate there was an extended period
after its abandonment during which no white man's feet traversed this
locality.
M"e are told that then the spot so favored by nature was invaded by
one John Clawson, who came here from what is no\V La Grange Cnunt.\-,
Indiana, and established a small trading post near the site of the oM
French post. Clawson bartered with the Indians, it is said, very successfull\ ,
but did not remain here very long. To Clawson, therefore, must be given
the credit of being the first settler in this place. It is an undisputed fact,
however, that Isaiah W. Bennett, who was among the first white men to
settle permanently in the interior of the state, was the first to prospect in
this immediate vicinity _ with a view of securing possession of the land
and to encourage immigration of the settlers from the eastern states.
Mr. Bennett was a native of the state of New York and he has the
distinction of having been the founder of the city of Jackson, Michigan,
in that early day being known as Jacksonburg. He was of a roving
disposition and had halted at various points in the interior of the state
before coming here, establishing public houses at Ann Arbor and Jack-
son, which he conducted for several years. He was a great admirer
of Andrew Jackson, at that time President of the United States, and he
quoted him so frequently that he was given the name of "Jack" Bennett
by the Indians and early settlers. From this it was an easy matter to
find a suitable name for the now flourishing city of Jackson. The original
survey of the tow^nship now known as Union had been made in 1826 by
Robert Clark, under the direction of Edward Tiffin, who was then LTnited
States surveyor general, and Mr. Bennett considered the union of the
two rivers as a most suitable place for the founding of a white settlement.
He prospected here in 1831 and with Jeremiah Marvin purchased a con-
siderable tract of land from the government. It wa« not until 1834, how-
ever, that Mr. Bennett located here, and in that year he built a log-house
neg-r the present side of the municipal power plant. Bennett was an
UNION CITY DIRECTORY
unique figure in the early history of the place and he lived in various parts
ot the piuneer town, keeping the old Union City house in 1837 and after-
ward conducting a primitive store on the southwest corner of Broadway
and High streets, where now stands the Merrifleld block. One of Mr
Bennett's children, W. T. Bennett, bears the distinction of being the first
white child born in Union township, and this babe grew to manhood here
now being Gen. W. T. Bennett, of the United States Army. The elder
Bennett finally removed to Wisconsin, where his last days were spent
The first really permanent settler in this place was Justus Goodwin
who came here in 1833 and purchased of Bennett and Marvin nearly 600
acres of land in this and Burlington townships, paying therefor the sum of
$2,000. He built a small house on the county line in which he lived until
the erection of a more pretentious structure on the present site of Isaac
Tower's residence. His purchase included the present site of the business
part of Union City, and Mr. Goodwin at once began improvements He
constructed a small race-way from the Coldwater River to the vicinity
ot the site of the present municipal power plant, and utilized the water-
power thus obtained in operating a saw-mill which was of great yalue to
the early settlers. November 28, 1833, Mr. Goodwin sold to E. W Morgan
ot Ann Arbor. 322 acres of land and the latter, in 1835, platted the town of
Goodwinsville, as the place was then called. The plat of the original
village was recorded in the oflice of the register of deeds of Branch County
August 27, 1835, and thus was the town formally established. In December
of the previous year a postoflice had been established here under the name
of Goodwinsville, in honor of the real founder of the place. Mr Goodwin
was the first postmaster here and he also conducted a small store where the
wants of the settlers were supplied.
In 1836 a company composed of eastern men became proprietors of
considerable land here and laid out what was known as the -two hundred
acre tract." The gentlemen comprising the firm were Richard L Clark
Israel W. Clark, Lyman W. Gilbert, and Isaac M. Diamond, and in 1838
Israel W. Clark and Mr. Diamond came here with a large force of men
and began- extensive improvements. The water-power was improved saw
and grist mills built, street.s laid out, etc., and the place began to gi've of
promise of its future importance. There was a "companV store, besides
one established by Hiram Marsh several years previous, but the first mer-

In the meantime settlers were Hocking here in great numbers." The
town was assuming importance and there were sturdy pioneers making
for themselves homes in every direction from the town. The early arrivals
include the names of Youngs, Buell, Judd, Zimmerman, Hammond, Kurd
McCamley, Lincoln, Parsons, Olmstead, Warren, Leonard, Chaffee, Saun-
ders, Hawley. Burnett, Mitchell, Dunks, Morrill.

Late in the thirties the inhabitants of Union City were wild with ex-
citement over the fact that this place had been named as the head of
navigation of the St. Joseph River, and that an appropriation of $50,000
had been made for the clearing away of obstructions and improving navi-
gation in the stream. Something like $10,000 was actually expended here,
the money being obtained from the sale of public lands. Justus Goodwin
was overseer of the work.
The first hotel in Union City was the Union City House, built in 1836
by the owners of the village. It was first in charge of Chester Hammond,
then later conducted by I. W. Bennett. The first landlord to conduct the
hotel for any great length of time was Thos. L. Acker, and under his man-
agement it was a popular place, noted for miles around for its hospitality
and for the dances held there, the upper floor containing a large ball-room.
John J. Freemyre made extensive additions to the building, and this old
structure is now a portion of the .-present Union City House, conducted by
F. B. Hart.
Soon after the subsidence of the steamboat craze discoveries were
made of large quantities of "bog" and "kidney" iron ore in this vicinity,
while in Butler and Quincy townships the deposits were still more extensive
and richer than here. Accordingly "The Union City Iron Company" was
formed and incorporated by act of the legislature March 17, 1847. A blast
furnace was built and the ore hauled here in wagons from long distances.
The stockholders were all residents of this immediate vicinity, although
Col. Thos. Mosley finally became the sole proprietor. The furnace was
built in 1846, and in May, 1847, the first manufacture of pig-iron in Mich-
igan was made here.
The project of a ship canal through this portion of the state found
many warm advocates in Union City from 1837 to 1855, as one of the
routes considered most favorable was the utilizing of the St. Joseph River
from Lake Michigan to this place and then by canal by way of Homer and
across the counties of Jackson and Washtenaw to the Huron River at
Dexter. Several official surveys were made and their practicability assured,
but as the population and wealth of this section was not at this time large,
and the estimated expense of the proposed water way a goodly sum, noth-
ing came of it. At the time the main lines of the Michigan Central and
Michigan Southern Railways were constructed across the state. Union City
had the opportunity of securing either one or the other of them, the
Michigan Central, in fact, making a survey through here, but the idea of
a ship canal overshadowed everything else and the opportunity was neg-
lected. Then when the canal idea was abandoned, it seemed for a time
that Union City was doomed to remain cut off from means of speedy
and convenient communication with the outside world. Finally, late in the
UNION CITY DIRECTORY 85
sixties, the Air Line Railroad project was pushed to a successful completion,
and in the fall of 1870 mixed trains were run over the road, followed by
a regular passenger and freight traffic the following year.
And with the modern march of progress and improvement, Union City
has kept steady pace. The town has always had the trade of a very wide
rural territory — a section which is the garden spot of southern Michigan.
And in addition there are manufacturing enterprises of importance which
aid greatly in the general welfare of the place.
As Union City was the first place in the state to manufacture pig-iron,
so was she the first to manufacture Portland cement from the marl that
abounds in the lakes and marshes of this locality. The Peerless Portland
Cement Company established a factory here in 1894, and it has ever since
manufactured the highest grade of Portland cement in immense quantities,
aggregating something like 400,000 barrels per year. The Institution gives
employment to several hundred men, and is in operation night and day
during the greater portion of the year.
The Peerless Yeast Company, manufacturers of dry yeast, is a con-
cern doing a large and growing business; while the Union City Canning
Company, with a capitalization of $15,000, has recently been organized for
the purpose of canning all kinds of vegetables and fruits.
The Union City Creamery, with its hundreds of milk patrons and its
milk routes traversing a wide territory and going into nine different town-
ships of Branch and Calhoun counties, is one of the leading institutions
of its kind in the state, and it is doing a good work in the development
of the dairying interests of this locality.
Union City was incorporated as ■ a village in 1866, and public im-
provements speedily followed in the way of graded streets, good sidewalks,
fire protection and the like. The question of public utility plants was vig-
orously agitated in the early nineties, and this resulted, in 1894, in the
establishment of a municipal water works plant and a municipal electric
lighting plant. Up to dajie, something like $40,000 have been expended
upon the two plants, and their service radiates to every part of the town.
There is considerable sewerage, with a complete system in prospect. There
are handsome and well-kept public parks, well-shaded and beautiful streets,
and handsome and durable cement sidewalks in every part of the town.
Union City has ever been very proud of her public school system. The
present fine four-story brick and stone central school building was built
in 1877, at a cost of about $25,000. It has since been greatly improved,
and is fully equipped with laboratories, libraries and all modern improve-
ments. Ever since 1881 classes have been graduated each year, and the
members of the alumni association number something like four hundred.
The high school is on the approved list of the leading colleges.
Union City's business places cannot be equalled in any other town of
its size in the state. Nearly all of the stocks of merchandise are exclusive
ones, thus affording a larger variety and better stocks of goods than are
generally found. The trading territory is a large one.
Five rural mail routes run out from the Union City postoffice, these
going into ten different townships.

Union City presents many attractive advantages as a manufacturing,
business and residence city, and it invites tlie consideration of tliose
seeking a new location. The town has good shipping facilities, while good
factory sites are easily obtainable. Although possessed of many public
improvements, the bonded indebtedness has nearly all been paid and the
tax rate is very low. As a residence town, Union City cannot be surpassed.
Its residents are mainly descendants of New York state families, and there
is an absence of any foreign population. The churches and schools are
in the front rank, its fraternal organizations are numerous and of large
membership, while a high social standard is maintained. The latch-string
is always out, and our people extend a heart>- welcome to all visitors.
