Excerpt from Protestant Missions in the Northwest

After the American Fur Company had made Mackinaw their depot of supplies for the northwest, Rev. William M; Ferry, a graduate of Union College, and father of the present Senator Ferry, of Michigan, in 1822, came to explore the field, and in the following year, with his wife,' commenced the Mackinaw school, where, for many years, were gathered Indian children from all the tribes in this northwest territory. This may be our starting point; for quite a number of the half-bloods, children of traders and others on the upper Mississippi and Minnesota. Were after wards found to have been scholars in this school.
