A great figure is bowing out
of Union Pier, after a quarter
of a century of pioneering alone
in the virgin country bordering
the edge of the Lake region. Dr.
L. E. Gordon, a Chicago physi-
cian of note, left his practice
many years "ago, to found a
summer colony, where his people
could come and enjoy the fresh
air and sunshine of open coun-
try, far removed from the noise
and confusion of City life.
Working alone, he felled
trees, built cottages, and sank
a deep water well. He built a
system of private roads, and
within a few years, established
a resort, which has since become
'famous throughout the entire
Middle-West. When he wasn't
tending the sick, he was busy
with his garden and trees. He
consoled, advised, counseled and
guided every one who came to
him.
Now Dr. Gordon is leaving
Union Pier, and Gordon Beach,
which he created and which be-
came the pride of the entire
community. That part of the
subdivision which has not al-
ready been sold, will go under
the hammer of the highest bid-
ders on Sunday, July 30, at 1-
o'clock. Michael Tauber & Co.,
