Pa., October 1, 1866. Like many other men, he made his start in life by working on the farm in summer and attending
school in the winter. At an early age he attended Stone Valley Academy and for several years was a successful teacher.
Later he entered Juniata Valley College, and after graduating he accepted a position with the R. S. King Publishing
Co. of Chicago, with which he remained for oneyear. At the end of this time he resigned to accept a similar position
with the Union Publishing Co. of New York, remaining for some months. But his ambition was to become a physician,
and with this end in view he entered the office of Dr. J. W. Putnam of Lyons, N. Y., where he remained for three
years. when he entered the University of Buffalo, taking a full course and graduating as an M. D. in May, 1895.
He at once began the practice of his profession in Buffalo, where he has since resided. In June, 1895, he was married
to Susan M. Barrett, of Buffalo. The doctor is a self-made man, having earned the money to pay his way as he went
along from the beginning.
