The most beautiful spot in Muske-
gon 10 inseparably associated with
The name Of Hackley, and in all west
srn Michigan there Is not a name bet
ter known and among the studious
and those interested In deeds Of phil
anthropy, this name is known and
admired. Chas. H. Hackley has been
in the lumber business continuously
since 1856 and in that time has
amassed fortune which gives him a
rating among the wealthy men Of the
nation. But with wealth there did
not come that tightening Of the purse
strings which is generally marked
characteristic Of wealthy men.
There Is no prettier spot in the
state than Hackley Place in a square
surrounded and pierced by stone
walks emphasizing with their white
ness the green Of faultlessly kept
lawns, its browning pride a towering
soldiers monument on the top OF
which stands a bronze figure pointing
ever in remembrance Of the heroes
who died that the nation might live.
Surrounding this park is the masnlll-
cent Hackley public library-a poem
in granite-with It's 10000 volumes,
and the equally stately ilackley
school like bee hive with It's GOO
children. Other elegant buildings
testify likewise to the liberality and
munilicence Of this man who has
pulled wealth out Of the forests OF
Michigan.
II Is no wonder then that the name
of Charles II. Hackley is known at
home and abroad. His munilicence
to Muskegon alone represents an out
lay Of nearly half u million. For the
past twenty years he has been a con.
slant sufferer from neuralgia and
rheumatism, also numbness of the
lower limbs, so much so that it has
seriously interfcrcd with his pleasure
in life. For some time past his
friends have noticed that he has
seemed to grow young again and to
have recovered the health which he
had in youth.
