Ulric Z Wiley, Associate Judge, Indiana Appellate Court.

I have heard Francis M. Ingler on many occasions and on each occasion he delighted his hearers.  I have often seen him put to the test of addressing the same audience at different times and to them he not only does not grow old and tiresome, but each time he affords them renewed pleasure.  I have heard him on the platform with some of the Nation's greatest orators and he eclipsed them all.  He is entertaining and at the same he gives one something to think about and to take home with him.
