First Visit Hers In 26 Years.

Miller Grant and wife left here this morning for their home in Lansford, North Dakota. They spent but a few days in Rensselaer, notwithstanding the fact that this was his boyhood home and that it was his first visit here since his departure 26 years ago. He is a cousin of Mrs. Mary A. Howe and Mrs. Thos. Knox and is related to about all the Grant families in and near Rensselaer. Mr. Grant was only a young man when ho left this place and he has grown to be a prosperous citizen in the northwest He is engaged in the real estate business. His stay here was of necessity short, because himself and wife had spent most of their eastern visit at other places, particularly at Hot Springs, Ark.
