Vilas County news. [volume] (Eagle River, Vilas County, Wis.) 1896-1927, 1900-09-24

An incident that touched the hearts
of all present was that at the picnic
given the visiting Scandinavian editors
at the Steensland cottage neor Madison
last week when Congressman Dahle
came forward and standing before the
venerable Rev. Abraham Jacobson OF
DEBORAH, Iowa, paid a tribute to the be-
loved pastor who had baptised the con-
gresham and his wife from the same
font the same day and later married
them. Mr.. Jacobson was for many
years pastor of the Lutheran churches
of Perry and Blue Mounds and it must
have warmed the cookies of the heart
of the aged worker in the Lords vine
yard to be received as he was with
more than ordinary manifestations of
affection. Mr.. Jacobson has knoyn
personally many of the great men OF
our country, including Webster, Clay,
Lincoln and Douglas. He was often a
companion of Lincoln in youth and af-
forwards exchanged letters with the
great emancipation.

WISCONSIN PEOPLE.

The comparative youth of the capital
city and particularly of our great uni
versity is brought to mind by the sight
of George w. Stoner at work on the
new engineering building on the upper
campus. Mr.. Stoner has seen Madison
from the summer of it's settlement and
was of the first class in the university
and the first president Of the Athena
can literary society. MIR. Stoner is
proud of the university and does not
want to be dissociated from it, hence
he is helping in the erection of it's lat
est building addition. Another work
man of note there occasionally is
James C. Ball, who fought under the
banner Of st. George in the Crimean
war.
