Government lands opened at Iowa Point June third
The General Land Office directs Kansas agents to begin the gates of the Iowa and other lands at Iowa Point, R I, on June three under Special Commissioner Norman Eddy. Attorney General Black says the government should grant an absolute fee simple patent to Christians and Indians for lands bought by the Government, a first for recognizing tribal fee rights. Starvation in Northern Michigan prompts a Detroit meeting to raise $5,000 for provisions after a Gratiot county family reports wife and three children dead. California news is minor. Nicaragua reports General Walker’s retreat. Governor Walker heads toward Kansas. Brigham Young reportedly fled Utah in talks with Indians.

Bible Society Operations in Illinois 1857 Annual Report
The Illinois Bible Society reports progress for the year ending March 15, 1857. About 600 branch societies and 109 depositories operated with roughly 75,000 volumes circulated. Nearly 5,000 unpaid local agents aided 1,000 societies, raising about $46,000, with most funds remitted to the New York Parent Society. Districts and agents expanded access, aiming for permanent county agents and annual visits to boost scripture distribution and support destitute areas. AMASA LORD, State Agent. A torn jacket is soon mended, but hard words bruise a child.
