History

Lewis H. Stanton (1860–1938) was the son of Edwin Stanton, who served in Cabinet-level positions with presidents James Buchanan, Abraham Lincoln, and Andrew Johnson. The younger Stanton moved from Washington D.C. to Minnesota for health reasons, and had this house constructed for himself by a former East Coast schoolmate. Stanton left Morris around 1890, moving with his family to New Orleans, where he spent the rest of his life.[2]

gollark: Oh yes, light speed is annoying too. Also how even the planets are mostly really boring.
gollark: The remaining volume is mostly stars, in which you will very very rapidly die.
gollark: Not climate change and whatever, it isn't *that* bad compared to the fact that the vast, vast majority of volume in the universe is basically useless empty space in which you will very rapidly die.
gollark: Aha, I was right, they ARE just reading far too much into random noise.
