Stelton a ‘bit of everything’ Edison section has tree-lined streets, strip malls, condos By ANTHONY A. GALLOnO News Tribune Staff Writer EDISON “Mixed nuts” is how William Burnstile describes the town’s Stelton section. “It’s a little bit of everything, but it’s nice to come home to,” says the 58-year- old New York native who moveid to Stelton in 1987. Burnstile quibbles over the word “neighborhood.” “It’s not a neighbor­ hood in the New York sense of the word. Like I said, there’s a bit of every­ thing.” The older Stelton section sits north of Route 27 on a series of tree-line streets that branch off Plainfield Road.

Lincoln’s Forgotten Middle Years Abstract It would be difficult to find two books on Abraham Lincoln published in the same year and yet more unalike in their conclusions than Sidney Blumenthal’s Wrestling with His Angel (the second installment in his multi- volume survey of Lincoln’s “political life”) and Elizabeth Brown Pryor’s Six Encounters with Lincoln. Blumenthal’s narrative of Lincoln’s “wilderness years,” from 1849 to 1856, begins with Lincoln at the lowest pitch of his professional life, returning to Illinois from his solitary term in Congress, an embarrassment to his fellow Whigs, only to rise, phoenix-like, from the firestorm of the controversy over slavery in “Bleeding Kansas.” Pryor’s Lincoln, on the other hand, makes his debut a week after his inauguration as president, in what should have been his greatest moment of political triumph, only to be exposed as a bumbling, awkward poseur incompetently stumbling from pillar to post.

  • Clara Barton: the Nation's Prime Precedent of Calm in the Center Of
    Clara Barton: The Nation’s Prime Precedent of Calm in the Center of the Battlefield Dani Martinez Senior Division Historical Paper Word Count: 2500 1 “I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I can stand and feed and nurse them.” 1 The bloody events of the Civil War brought on countless adversities that provoked the demise of thousands of American soldiers. Injuries on the battlefield early on in the war proved to be the leading cause of death for soldiers, as the introduction of nurses was not initially effective in lowering the soldiers’ rising death rate. As the fate of American Union soldiers took a turn for the worse, the servitude and organizations created by Clara Barton paved the way for American achievement and success. The initiative and humanitarian measures made by the inspiring Clara Barton during the premise of events before, during, and after the Civil War in the United States, cemented her as an admirable role model for women in the nineteenth century. By putting her fellow citizens before her own needs, as well as through her service and establishment of the American Red Cross, Clara Barton introduced a sense of security in the eye of the storm that was raging war. Barton was born on December 25, 1821 in North Oxford, Massachusetts. As a young adolescent, she was “small, slender, and striking...with silky brown hair...a round face, a wide expressive mouth, and exquisite, dark brown eyes.” 2 All the family members she grew up with were of significantly older age, so much that she referred to herself as 1 Quote said by Clara Barton.
