GREENHALGE 145 and family have been so long and honorably con nected with the growth and upbuilding of Lowell from the earliest days of the city. He was now established in life. Happy in his home and his marriage, devoted to his children, earnest in the pursuit of his profession, he was also respected by his fellow townsmen and popular in society, where his charm of manner, his wit and humor, his clever ness as an amateur actor, were all appreciated. Four years before his marriage he had taken ...his first step in public life. In 1868 he was chosen to the common council, and was re-elected the following year. He also organized the Grant Campaign Club in Lowell, and was its business manager. It has been said that Mr. Greenhalge's friends found it difficult at first to interest him in active politics, although the larger public questions always absorbed his attention. How true this may be I do not know, but his aptitude for political affairs and his gift of eloquent speech were unmistakable, and, once em barked in a political career, he soon became a leader in municipal affairs.
