From the first Bro.

Glenn, though modest and unobtrusive, was known as a solid and helpful member of the church.

He always had the confidence of the people of Brown County, and was by them elected to various public offices, at last becoming Lieutenant-Governor of the State.

But his business not prospering to suit him, he removed to Wichita, which was at that time a straggling village of uncertain fortunes, situated on a river of doubtful reputation, and located in a country concerning which the public were debating whether it should be called "The Great American Desert," or a decent place, where civilized men could live and thrive.
But Bro.

Glenn did not lose faith in the Lord nor in his country.
