Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. Introduction. Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a heart condition that causes the heart to beat abnormally fast for periods of time. It's a relatively common condition, affecting between one and three in every 1,000 people. The cause is an extra electrical connection in the heart.
Prominent 19th century suffragist and civil rights activist Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902) became involved in the abolitionist movement after a progressive upbringing. She helped organize the worldâs first womenâs rights convention in 1848, and formed the National Womenâs Loyal League with Susan B. Anthony in 1863.n 1851, Cady Stanton met Susan B. Anthony, with whom she formed a lifelong partnership based on their common dedication to womenâs emancipation. Three years later, she addressed the New York legislature on an omnibus womenâs rights bill.
Stanton was organized in 1860 when the people of Montcalm County voted to move the county seat here from Greenville, which was the original county seat since 1840. At that time, the County Board purchased 40 acres (160,000 m2) from Fred Hall of Ionia and named the city Fred in his honor. The family of Levi Camburn was the first to settle here and he became its first postmaster on March 10, 1862. The city was renamed for Secretary of War, Edwin M. Stanton in 1863. Stanton was platted in 1865, incorporated as a village in 1869, and as a city in 1881. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 2.1 square miles (5.5 kmÂ²), all land.
