Longtime McMinnville attorney Larry Barton Stanley died Thursday. He was 78. Born in Spencer, Stanley was elected as state representative for Warren and Van Buren counties while he was a 21-year-old student at the University of Tennessee College of Law. He held that office until 1970, serving on the House Fiscal Review Committee during that time. He practiced law for many years in partnership with Bernard Smith and later Thomas Bratcher, and also served as Warren County Attorney for many years.
