         WALTER L. HOUSER, editor and founder of the Buffalo County
       Herald, was born in Pennsylvania, May 6, 1855. In the year 
       1865, he left his native State in company with his mother 
       and came to Wisconsin, locating with her in River Falls, 
       Pierce County, where he received a common school education. 
       He afterwards read law with ABNER MORSE, and then commenced 
       learning the printer's trade. In 1876 he moved to Mondovi, 
       his present home, where he established the Buffalo County
       Herald. This is a Republican paper, seven-column folio, and 
       has a circulation of 500 copies, being one of the best in 
       the county, and is a strong advocate of the temperance cause. 
       The subject of this sketch was married in 1877 to Miss SUSIE 
       LEGORE, daughter of JOHN LEGORE, one of the oldest settles 
       in the town of Naples. He is a member of the A. O. U. W., 
       Mondovi Lodge, No. 23, and also of the Good Templars, being, 
       a strong worker in that cause, and was Clerk in the Senate 
       of the Senate of 1879 and 1880.
