living. His father, John NJ. Frank,
came to this country from the princi-
pality of Brunswick, Germany; he was
an educated German.
Col. Frank was given to reading and
study in his early life. Books adapted
to the young were not then common
The little primer, in which occurred a
few sentences from the catechism. and
Esop's Fables for lighter reading, con-
stituted the chief literature for boys
and girls in majority of families. He
had a special fondness for newspapers
in his boyhood days, and but few Of his
age were better posted in passing
events. Newspapers were not then
common as now. He also had passion
for discussion with politicians on the
issues of the day. His home was on
the farm during the first twenty years
of his life. Much of his time was spent
in school, and teaching and serving us
bookkeeper in mercantile establish
ments. He had the advantage of Sc
lect schools, but never fitted for college.
Bouton'S history of his native town of
Virgil speaks Of his active efforts in
aiding the organization of SOCIETIES of
young people for mutual improvement.
That was kind Of work, which APP
pears from what is said of him, for
which he was we'll adapted and ambi-
tious to be engaged in.
As has already been said, he had a
fondness for newspapers, and while vet
a boy entered into arrangement with
two others to issue a weekly manu-
script paper, which was named the
| Spectator. The names of the writer's
for the paper were studiously con-
cealed. Two copies were weekly de-
posted with clerk in a business house
in the village, and by him allowed to be
read by all who had a curiosity to know
what was said in the paper. The con-
tents of the paper were of such a char
acter, there was an increasing anxiety
among the young people of the town to
learn its contents. The purpose of the
paper was to check profanity, vulgar
ity, unmannerly behavior, which was
common with some young men.

E'FOr several years L had been troubled with
general nervousness and pain in the region
of my heart. My greatest affiiction was
asleepIessness; it was almost impossible atany
time to obtain rest and sleep. Having seen
DIR. Miles remedies advertised began using
Nervine. After taking small quantity the
benefit received was so great that was posi-
lively alarmed. thinking the remedy con-
tanned GpiateS which would finally be inJur1-
GUS to me; but on being assured by the3drug-
gist that it was perfectly harmless, contin-

was pleased with the office, as it gave
him large opportunity to make ac-
QuaintanceS. He was elected county
supervisor, being the Youngest man
ever chosen to that Office at that time
in the town.
During the later years Ofhis residence
in the state Of New York the anti-slav-
cry excitement ran high. Men who eX-
pressed anti-slavery sentiments did it
at some risk; they were regarded us
enemies Of the country. There were
published two anti-slavery papers in
the NOrth-One the EBe02acip0t0r, in
New York, and the other the LiberatOr,
by Garrison, in Boston. Both of these
publications were denounced by the
press of the great political parties in
the Northern states. Col. Frank was
anxious to know what was the line
argument OF the anti-slavery papers,
but none of this class were taken in the
town. In order to satisfy his desire he
subscribed for the E'md3acipQtOr. When
the paper came the post master refused
to deliver it, for the reason Postmaster
General Amos Kendall had declared it
an incendiary publication and there
fore improper to pass through the Unit
ed States mails. After promising the
postmaster that no public exposure
should be made of the paper he was
allowed to take it.
Col. Frank was married with Miss
Caroline j. Carpenter in the town of
Preble, n. Y, in 1887. His family of
children and near relations are dead,
except his wife.
Col. NJ. Frank and wife came to
Southport mow Kenosha) to reside in
October, 1889. He had no definite
purpose as to what employment he
would engage in, leaving that to future
development.
The first territorial temperance con-
yention was held at East Troy, Wal
worth county, February, 1910. Col.
Frank had then been q citizen of Wis
consin only a short time. Deason
Whitney, of Southport, conveyed him,
with two other friends, to the place of
meeting in a sleigh. The afternoon of
the convention was devoted to business;
