Morgan Noble : ウィキペディア英語版 | Morgan Noble Morgan L. Noble was an American Methodist minister, and later lumberman from Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, who spent two one-year terms in 1849-1850 as a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly from Fond du Lac County, first as a Free Soiler, then as a Democrat.〔("Members of the Wisconsin Legislature 1848–1999 State of Wisconsin Legislative Bureau. Information Bulletin 99-1, September 1999. p. 88 )〕 Morgan came to Fond du Lac in 1845 as a circuit rider, but a colleague would remember years later that while Noble was "a man of superior talent", his health proved unequal to the challenges of the role, and at the end of the two year term he first "took a location" (''i.e.'', ceased riding a circuit), and eventually sought a secular profession.〔Miller, Wesson Gage. ''Thirty Years in the Itinerancy'' Milwaukee: I. L. Hauser & Co., 1875; pp. 43-44〕 While serving on the circuit, he was reportedly "in great demand at all weddings." He and a fellow Methodist minister built a house which they shared in town, but when the two quarreled, they divided their interests by sawing the building in two.〔''The History of Fond Du Lac County, Wisconsin'' Chicago: Western Historical Company, 1880; pp. 622, 652, 751〕 == Public office == In 1849, he succeeded Whig Charles Doty for the Wisconsin Legislature's Second Session as a member of the Assembly's 2nd Fond du Lac County district (the Towns of Calumet, Forest, Auburn, Byron, Taychedah and Fond du Lac〔(''Manual for the use of the assembly, of the state of Wisconsin, for the year 1853'' Madison: Brown and Carpenter, Printers, 1853; p. 39 )〕), being elected as a Free Soiler. He was re-elected for the 1850 session, but had now switched to the Democratic Party. He was succeeded in 1851 by Morris S. Barnett, also a Democrat.〔(Turner, A. J., ed. ''The legislative manual of the state of Wisconsin; comprising Jefferson's manual, rules, forms and laws for the regulation of business; also, lists and tables for reference'' Madison, 1872; pp. 199-204 )〕 He served Fond du Lac as a justice of the peace in 1852, and an alderman in 1853.〔''The History of Fond Du Lac County, Wisconsin'' Chicago: Western Historical Company, 1880; pp. 573, 579〕
