The  index  to  volumes  1  to  15  inclusive  of  the  Michigan  Pioneer  and 
Historical  Collections  has  been  prepared  by  direction  of  the  Board  of 
State  Auditors,  the  work  having  been  placed  under  the  charge  of  the  State 
Librarian.  The  original  plan  was  to  have  the  first  thirty  volumes  indexed, 
but  the  magnitude  of  the  work  made  it  necessary  to  divide  it  into  two 
volumes,  the  first  volume  covered  the  above  mentioned  collections,  the. 
second  volume,  to  cover  volumes  16  to  29  inclusive.  ^ 

The  work  has  progressed  as  rapidly  as  possible,  the  volumes  having  been 
indexed  page  by  page  and  inaccuracies  in  the  original  text  corrected  so 
far  as  possible.  The  State  Librarian  wishes  to  acknowledge  with  thanks 
the  faithful  and  painstaking  work  which  has  been  done  by  the  compiler, 
Mrs.  Cornelia  S.  Perry,  also  the  kindness  of  Hon.  C.  M.  Burton,  the  presi- 
dent of  the  society,  who  has  examined  the  proof  of  the  work  and  made 
corrections,  which  he  alone  could  make,  owing  to  his  knowledge  of  the 

early  history  of  the  State.
