Wendell Huston of Blandsville, Illinois came to Carrington in August 1909 to open a law office; he had just been admitted to the bar. Besides his law practice he also dealt in farmlands and for a time was associated with T.F. McCue's American Land Securities Company. He was a trustee of the Congregational Church and active in the Sunday school. Little more about him appears in the records except that he was married, his wife's maiden name was Wallace and there were two children: Wallace and Susan. He is last mentioned in the Independent in 1918 and he and his family apparently moved away about that time.
