The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Thursday, October 1, 1908

W.C. DOUGLASS, of Burlington, Kansas, in company with ISAAC NORRIS of this
city, made the Patriot Office a very pleasant call this Thursday morning.
MR. DOUGLASS was a pioneer settler in Lucas County, coming here in 1853 and
taking an active part in the progress of the county until 1876, when he and
family removed to Burlington, Kansas, this being his first visit here since
that date. He was a member of Company E 34th Iowa Infantry during the Civil
War. Captain N.B. GARDNER, whom MR. DOUGLASS was glad to meet, commanded
the company, and in his advancing years an honored and beloved citizen.
