"He developed in early years a taste for the study of medicine.
Opposed by his parents and friends the desire grew stronger, and by
dint of hard work, perseverance and ' pluck,' he struggled on until,
in 1863, he graduated at the College of Physicians and Surgeons in
New York City. Eclecticism impressed him as being the nearest
right of the several schools of medicine, and he became an ardent
follower in that line of practice. Beginning in his native village, he
has by steady application gained a practice seldom possessed by the
country doctor. Robust, active and keen, he has made his life a
financial success. Aside from his profession he is the owner of a
farm of 300 acres, upon which he displays his love for the soil by
keeping the whole under a fine state of cultivation. At fifty years of
age he is in the prime of life, and is looking forward to many years
of activity."
