- Description:
- Materials related to the events of the C.I.O. sit-down strikes and the "labor holiday" on June 7th, 1937. The group includes newspaper articles and a personal statement of Chief Seymour handwritten by him and typed with slight revisions. Strikes in Lansing occurred at the REO plant, the Capitol City Wrecking and Lumber Company, with threats of action at other locations in the city. On the "labor holiday" itself, City Hall, the Knapps department store, and many other businesses were closed due to the various threats. A crowd threatened to attack the jail to break out prisoners being held on strike-related charges, and Seymour was not supported by the Mayor, the State Police, the Governor, Prosecutors, or Judges in his attempts to prevent incident, though it was ultimately resolved without bloodshed.

- Located at 525 W Michigan Ave. "Ye who pass by and would raise your hand against me, harken ere you harm me. I am the heat of your hearth on cold winter nights, the friendly shade screening you from the summer sun, and my fruits are refreshing draughts quenching your thirst as you journey on. I am the beam that holds your house, the board of your table, the bed on which you lie, and the timber that builds your boat. I am the handle of your hoe, the door of your homestead, the wood of your cradle, and the shell of your coffin. I am the bread of kindness and the flower of beauty. Ye who pass by, listen to my prayer. "Harm me not".

- Description:
- This was the second state office building, at the southwest corner of South Washington Avenue and Allegan Street. It was built in 1871 and used for state government purposes until 1879 when the new capitol was completed. After that it held a combination of state offices and private enterprises. It was torn down in 1923. The flag over the road with a cross and crown in the top half may have been Knights Templar, and that and the buntings/decor on the state office building were perhaps done for one of the Knights Templar Conclaves that occurred in Lansing in the early 20th century. Parts of the original photograph at left and top were blanked out prior to the creation of this print.

- Description:
- This collection consists primarily of a scrapbook that was assembled by Sarah Morlok Cotton, one of the famous Morlok Quadruplets born in Lansing in 1930. There is also a folder of loose clippings, and four photographs of the girls when they were young. The scrapbook includes mainly local and national newspaper clippings about the quads' birth, their parents, special occasions such as their birthdays, and performances that they gave. Obituaries for the parents and two of the quads (who passed away during the time the scrapbook was being created), personal correspondence, and some information about the girls' health statistics are also part of the book.
