Welcome back once again. Let’s conclude ourdiscussion of sores and ulcers of the mouth witha discussion of cold sores, also known as feverblisters. Unlike canker sores, the cause for theselesions is well known: the Herpes simplex virusand the sores are the result of a true infection.There are two phases to this type of infection, aprimary phase typically in young children, which affects all tissues of the mouth.A secondary, or recurrent phase, usually affects only the lips and skin, gum lineand palate. These tissues are the opposite (firm vs. loose) than what is affectedby canker sores, which helps distinguish between the two. Also, the viral infec-tion usually has blisters as a feature and it is very important to remember thatthe fluid in the blisters is loaded with viruses and therefore very contagious. Ifblisters are present, please avoid contact with others and be careful of touchingthe area yourself. You can spread the infection or even infect your finger if thereis a break in the skin surface.
Patients who suffer cold sores are also familiar with two other characteristics ofthis infection. First, it can come back and infect the same spot in the mouth oron the lip over and over. This is because the virus can hide in the nerves andthen reappear in the area supplied by the nerve. This happens when the patient’sresistance is lowered, like during a fever or cold – hence the term fever blister orcold sore. Second, the patient can usually feel that the infection is coming backbefore they see any blisters. That is a good time to try and treat the area with anantiviral drug and there are both topical ointments and tablet form prescriptionsavailable. These can help, but like most viruses, the Herpes virus can be stub-born. The sores will usually resolve themselves in 7-10 days. If they become aserious problem for you, please consult with your dentist or physician.
My staff and I have enjoyed sharing our list of topics with you and with thisinstallment, we have reached the end of our list of topics. We appreciate bothyour time and interest over the last year and wish you the best of dental health.Remember, stays curious, ask questions and if we can be of service please con-tact the office.

From 1834 to 1838 the first Court House was constructed in West End Park. It wasdemolished in 1875 when the second court house was built on Green Street. Thefountain was a 1930 centennial celebration gift to the City from Harold C. Brooks. It is a replica of the “Temple of Love” in Marie Antoinette’s garden at Versailles, France. Marshall’s section of the Old Territorial Road was named State Street until 1923. That is when the state requested that all towns along US 12 from Detroit to Chicago name their main streets Michigan Avenue. The architectural styles of thedowntown buildings include Italianate, Greek Revival, Second Empire, Romanesque, Colonial Revival, and Beaux Art Classicism. In 1860 the unusual and famed Honolulu House was built by Abner Pratt.
Five MUSEUMS along the Downtown Walk
Honolulu House Museum (107 N. Kalamazoo Ave.) The house has aunique combination of Gothic Revival, Italianate and Polynesian influences and was constructed of Marshall Sandstone and faced with vertical boards and battens. The structure is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and the HistoricAmerican Buildings Survey.
Walters Gasoline Museum (220 W. Michigan Ave.) A fascinating collection ofmemorabilia related to Midwestern cars, service stations, and the history of Marshall. The museum is housed at the old Marshall Interurban Railway Depot, which was built in 1903. A large exterior wall mural was ddadd ded iin 2010100.
American Museum of Magic (107 E. Michigan Ave.) Houdini, Thurston and Michigan’s own Blackstone are among the hundreds of magicians whose treasuresare showcased in this amazing museum. Explore the largest collection of magic artifacts on public display anywhere in the world. The museum also operates a research center in the former Marshall library open to magic historians and researchers.
United States Postal Service Museum (202 E. Michigan Ave.) The largest collection of U.S. Postal memorabilia outside of Washington’s Smithsonian Institution,the Postal Service Museum houses thousands of items spanning the entire history of U.S. mail delivery. Among the highlights are an 1890s storefront post office, a horhorse-se dradrawnwn maimail bl bugguggy,y, andand an an or origig nal 1931 Model A mail truck that was driven inthe inauguration parade of President George H. W. Bush.
Grand Army of the Republic Memorial Hall (402 E. Michigan Ave.) The G.A.R. Hall Museum honors Marshall-area veterans of the Civil War and featuresartifacts from the Civil War, Spanish-American War, and the World Wars. It was built in1902 by the Marshall chapter of the G.A.R. as a meeting place for Civil War veteransand their sons. The basement is home of the recently renovated Marshall Historical Society Archives and Research Center, which is open by appointment.

Historic Capitol Hill Walk .(.35 miles)
The State Constitution of 1835 fixed the capital at Detroit until 1847. In the late1830s and early 1840s it was understood that along the Old Territorial Road Ann Arbor was to get the university, Jackson the prison, and Marshall the capital. A large area was financed locally and set aside for a Capitol Hill. The Capitol was to face Marshall Avenue where the B. E. Henry Building now stands. A “Governor’s Mansion” was erected in 1839. Lots around the Capitol Square were sold for fantastic prices.
In 1847 the House considered selecting a permanent capital. Twelve towns werwere ve voteoted od on an andnd thethe to top sp sixix werwere Le Lyonyons (s (30)30) M, Marsarshalhall (l (29)29) a, andnd AlbAlbionion B, Byroyronn, Eaton Rapids and Jackson which all received 27 votes. In a subsequent vote Lansing was chosen by the House (35 to 27) and the Senate passed the HouseBill by a vote of 12 to 8. Today you can visit the hill that almost became theMichigan Capitol Complex. In 1971 and 1972 State Historic Markers were installed by the Mary Marshall Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution at each of the 3 historic sites around the square.
Three MUSEUMS along Capitol Hill Walk
Governor’s Mansion (612 S. Marshall Ave.)The Greek Revival dwelling never housed a governor, but the man who built it did serve as Michigan’s thirdgovg ernor. The signg ature Doric columns were constructed in Detroit and hauled by yoxcart to Marshall. Since 1966 the house has been owned and restored by theDAR. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and in theHistoric American Buildings Survey.
Capitol Hill School (602 Washington St.) Built in 1860 and served as a school for 100 years. The Marshall Historical Society-owned museum hosts

Other Significant Trees
Marshall has been awarded Tree City USA since 1996. Major tree plantings were under taken in 1980 as par t of the City Sesquicentennial celebration and from 2005 to 2012 over 700 new trees were planted along public streets and in parks. Significant and interesting trees are noted in the text associated with the 1.5 mile Historic Homes Walk (green dots). Other trees are listed below and can also be enjoyed at the Brooks Nature Area Park and the Grever’s Nature Center.

Emerald Ash Borer - Throughout the City in the 1960s Ash trees were planted to replace the dead Elms. By 2011 most of the Emerald Ash trees were devastated by the Emerald Ash Borer. Marshall embraces the value of biodiversity so future diseases will not cause such invasive damage to the City streetscapes. “Wolf and Bear” Trees - Wolves were common prowlers in the village. In 1832 Samuel Camp placed a platform in a large oak tree so men could protect the town. The tree remained in the middle of Mansion Street (where the Franke Center For The Arts is now located) until 1874. There was also a “bear tree” serving a similar purpose. This large oak was located just north of the “wolf tree” until it was cut down when Mansion Street was paved in 1913.

Historic Homes Walk (3miles)
Historic Markers Monuments River Walk. (.85 mile)
Kalamazoo River & Rice Creekk The 0.85 mile self-guided Rive-Walk features five pedestrian bridges, boat and canoe launches, scenic overlooks and wildlife. A great deal of Marshall’s early history was lived along the KalamazooRiver and its tributary Rice Creek. The walk is wheelchair accessible. Visitors are enencouraged td to practitice responsiblible sttew dard hiship of tf thihis valluablble resource.
Marshall’s River Walk is part of the Calhoun County Linear Trailway System and the North Country National Scenic Trail, which runs through seven states from NewYork State to North Dakota. Mileages noted are measured from the east entrance at Stuar t’s Landing and do not include the side attractions. Numbers below correspond to points of interest shown on the birds eye view guide map.
Stuart’s Landing (0 start) This site was used by Alfred Stuart to launchhis fishing boat. He and Win Schuler loved to fish together. In earlier times,Marshall residents enjoyed swimming, ice skating, and fishing on the mill pond. Frances Stevens Stuart created Stuart’s Landing as a memorial to her husband, a longtime Marshall attorney, judge and sportsman. Today the park features a banband sd shelhelll, resrestrotroomsoms p, parkarkinging p, picnicnicic pavpaviliilionon, gr grillillss, benbenchechess, fisfishinhing dg dockock an andd boat/canoe/kayak ramp.
Mill Pond Overflow/Dam (.05 mile) In the spring this area can turn into a raging river race. In 1853 the first brewery in Marshall was locatedto the south with a cellar carved in the sandstone for storage. In the 1880s a “Barrel House” was maintained in the original cellar by the Eagle Brewery which was l locat ded west of Sf S Marshall Ave.
Ketchum’s Mill (.13 mile) A large axle from the “First Stone Flour Mill”(built 1837 by town founder Sidney Ketchum) can still be seen on the river bank below S Marshall Ave at the waterfall and dam. The mill was rebuilt following threemajor fires in the 1850s and finally torn down in 1881. Celebrated escaped slaveAdam Crosswhite, who was rescued by more than 100 Marshall residents in 1847, was said to have hidden in this mill before escaping to Canada.
Power House (.22 mile) In1893, the City of Marshall purchased thehydroelectric plant from the Perrin Estate for $17,000. The City built a new dam and added two waterwheel generators and two streetlight arc machines. The current facility produces both hydro and diesel electric power. The last turbine generator was installed in 1928. Diesel power was first generated in 1922. Although none of the original equipment remains, much of the powerhouse andwheel-pit are still in existence. It is claimed that this is the second oldestoperating hydroelectric utility plant under original ownership in the United States.
Pagoda/Canoes/Brewery (.3 mile) A beautiful cultural icon wasyadded to the Riverwalk in 2001 when local residents Jay and Karen Larsonarranged for an authentic pagoda to be constructed in China and shipped to Marshall. As you stand at the canoe launch look across the river and see evidenceof the Eagle Brewery in the form of a deteriorated cavern and sandstone quarry. Some 10,000 barrels were claimed to have been produced in 1895. A paved pedestrian, bike, rollerblade path extends to the west parallel to the

Perrinville (.4 mile) During the early 1800s, Marshall industrialist Horace Perrincontrolled so much of the industry and commerce in this area that it became known as Perrinville. By 1860, Perrin had built machine shops, a distillery, foundry, and flourmill here. In the late 1800s, the Rock River Paper Company was located at this site. Rubble from the industrial past is still visible. The City’s PSB facility now occupies the site.
“Bums Alley” (.6 mile) The walk extension along Rice Creek under the RR b ibridgedge ta takeskes yo you tu throhroughugh “B Bumsums Al Alleyy.” Duringg the Great Depression, men who rodethe rails looking for work regularly stopped here to beg for money t at ne barb hy housuseses. A Michigan Central Railroad Bridge was built in 1891 over Rice Creek. In the early 1900s the bridge was rebuilt after being destroyed by a flood. The stones from the original bridge were salvaged and used to construct the Oakridge Cemetery Chapel Building on Homer Road. The large rock “Territorial Road Monument” located inCarver Park was moved from “Bums Alley.”
Ketchum’s Vision at Rice Creek (.65 mile) “What a town I couldkbuild here!” Marshall’s founder, Sidney Ketchum, is said to have stated in 1830 while standing at the confluence of the Kalamazoo River and Rice Creek. At this location in 1831 Ketchum built a sawmill and a gristmill the next year. The Pearl St access area with parking and picnic tables is located just west of Rice Creek.
Sausage Factory (.8 mile) In 1923, C.M Walters built a sausage factory at ythis location. From 1924 to 1959 the Sentz and Son Meat Packing Company operated just east of the demolished sausage factory. The steps lead to a pub on Pearl St and a brewery to the north.
