Henry Ford states be is making plans to establish a museum tin the environs of Denrborne, at the cost of five million dollars. The museum will cover ten acres and will be devoted to historic houses, inns, and birth places of famous people. These structures will be taken apart and reassembled inside the museum, and thus shrines from every State in the Union will be collected under one roof, obviating a thousand miles travel and unnecessary expense to those interested in antiquity.
