The subject of this sketch was born
in Kenton township (then Luzerne
county), Lackawanna county, in the
month of .September, issti, and was
brought, up on a farm till the age of
2tl. when iie took up the trade of a
wheelwright at Fleetvllle, Pa. He re
mained there eight years, then moving
OKaiiC.K W. STANTON',
District Deputy (Irand Master of Wyo
ming County and Member of Ked Jacket
l.uilfie, No. J. (. ((. F,
to this town, opened n first-class wag
on manufacturing business, nnd luter
added a full line of furniture, which
business he has also successfully
nianaued for eight years. In 1SSS he
purchased the undertaking business,
and became successor to C I,. Jack
son, of this place.
It was In lsxo that Hrother Stanton
took his initiatory step in secret so
ciety wotk. He was then initiated Into
lied Jacket lodge, Xo, Independent
Order ol' Odd Fellows, thus making lum
a member of that lodge for sixteen
years. During that time he has ad
vanced stey by step, through his un
tiring work, in both the subordinate
and the encampment lodges, until to
day he is looked to as a leader in
lodge work in this county. He has
been captain of Ked Jacket degree
team for the past four years, and or
ganized the lirst (iegre.- team in Wy
oming county twlilch. by the way, be
longed to Ked Jacket Iodic.)
In ISM, as a recompense for his past
faithfulness to the order, he was elect
ed district deputy grand master for
this county for both the subordinate
and the encampment lodges. In 1 s;r.
he was unanimously re-elected to (111
the ollice for another term, which of
liee he now holds. Hrother Stanton is
an odd Felloe nil over, nnd his hand
is always open to a brother in dis
tress, and he is one of the most pooii
lar men seen on our "midway."

tained his many callers with the case
of C. Matt hew son vs. Rhodes Kms..
talse pretense. Attorney I. II. Ilol
gale, of !.a Plume, successfully looked

Piatt, esq., of Tunkhunuock. was the

submitted (after the examination of

securing the services of "Santa Claus"
to exhibit himself in front of his store
Christmas eve and eive to all children
a ba:j of nuts and candy, which suited
the little folk to perfection. We no
ticed some older ones looked very wish
fully toward a bug of peanuts, espec
ially Ken and Nelson, They tried to
swear in their' age on "Old Santa." but
"Santa" wouldn't swear, so they art
singing the old familiar hymn, "Can't
Have Any of My Peanuts." etc.
