Stanley's personality which completely overshadows both of these; a quality beside which his legal talent was as an ant hill to a mountain; a quality to which, when we liken the matchless triumphs of the great office he held, it is like comparing the importance of a brooklet to that of a mighty stream.
Stanley was in the social limelight as mistress of the governor's home in Topeka she wore her honors with becoming modesty and discharged the trying duties of the "first lady of the State" in such a manner as to win the plaudits of the most exacting critics.
Brother Stanley was for nearly forty years one of the leaders of the Sedgwick county bar and was accorded a place in the legal profession throughout the State as a trial lawyer, counsellor and jurist.
We see that both WilliamStanley's father and brother were involved in drama or poetry, but it is interesting to look at an even larger picture, that is, the involvement of their more-or-less feudal domain in drama.
WilliamStanley was born in 1560 or 1561 in either London or in Lathom House, Lancashire [6].
A continuing difficulty for WilliamStanley starting in late 1594 was a lawsuit brought by Alice, Ferdinando's widow, on behalf of her three daughters for much of the Stanley family estates.
