HMn h New Britain

Ar. Stanley was born in New Brat-
 ain in the fine old homestead which
 is now the property ot the American
 Hardware Corporation at the corner
 of Park street and Franklin square.
 in the year 1873. After attending
 schools in New Britain. and Andover,
 Mass. he graduated from Yale
 Sheffield Scientific school in the class Of 1899. For some years. he
 was connected with the Worthing- ton Pump company. of New Jersey,
 and was at one time their repre- sentative in New Mexico, doing en- ginesring work. After various ex- perisnces in this country and abroad. MT. Stanley returned to New Britain :7 years ago, and became associated with the Stanley Rule & Level com- pany. for . number of years. until he finally became it's president. suc- ceeding the late Charles Mitchell, and was president of tho company from 1911 to 1s20.
 Mir. Stanley is one of Connecticut's best known manufacturers. Under his guidance, the Stanley Rule & Level company became the leading tool manufacturers of the world. It was while MT. Stanley was actively engaged in this business that 1t ac- quired its factories in Canada. shaftsbury. Vt. Newark, N. Y., Plantsville and Bridgeport. Conn. and elsewhere. 70 that at the time of its merger with the Stanley Works. 1t was the manufacturer of the largest line of woodworkers tools of any corporation in the world.
 Since his retirement from hust- ness in 1920, Mr. Stanley has main tained home and legal residence in New Britain. but has travelled ex- tcnsively in Europe and this country. In 1895 he married Harriett Russell, daughter of the late Henry F. Rus sell and thus united two of the old est New Britain families. Mir. and Mrs. stanley.s residence abroad the last few years. has evidently not broken the loyal association which they have maintained with New Britain. nor interfered with MT. stanley's generous plan of perpet- uat the Stanley name. In the park system of his native city.
 The proposal as 1t now stands contains the exchange of letters be- tween Mr. Stanley and friends in New Britain. He is ready to execute and deliver deeds of all this prop erty to the city of New Britain when ever the city has assented to the which friends have pro- posed to safeguard his own interest. The corporation counsel has drafted deeds in accordance with these let ters and they are ready to submit to the common council for considera- ton and acceptance.
