The Albert Lea Stnnd.r0 thus refers
to the address of Rev. Stanley of this city
at the Decoration Day exercises in AL
bert Lea "Of the Grafton we cannot
speak too highly. 1t was delivered in
fine voice and was one of the most e]o-
quent and deserving tributes ever paid to
the soldier patriots, living and dead, OF
the war for the Union. Rev. w. E. Stan
ley the orator, was private in the dlvl-
sion of Gen. Gibbons at the battle Of
Gettysburg, and his thrilling description
Of the charge of the First Minnesota,
which was made to save time for the ad-
vance of Gibbons command, was thus
rendered peculiarly vivid and effective.
Mr.. Stanley has a fine military appear
ance, and his pathetic descriptions and
wordpictures of familiar scenes, and OF
the lessons of the war, brought tears to
the eyes and stirred the emotions Of the
hardest veteran"

l.. Jones of this city, and IS young lady
of ability, high social accomplishments,
and in every way qualified to be a loving

"Mr. Preston is a young man OF the
nob1cst type, and while securing rare
prize for himself, bis happy wife was
peculiarly fortunate in securing a com
