the Eggleston row now stands. opposite
the court house. After a few years he
married Miss Amelia Stem, sister of Mrs.
Wait and Mrs Mann. De Lano persuad

those days, and it utterly ruined the poo:
man. Had he stuck to the old American
he would have retained handsome prop
erty. De Lano went to Denver, and wher
Grant made his trip to California, JUS
after his first election, DeLano got him a
his house for few days. After Grant wa.
inaugurated DeI4ano got this consulship
which he has held since that time. 1t i
