   Studying law with Honorable Levi Dungan, he was admitted to practice in 1854, and while superintending the Jackson public schools, he practiced law until 1862, when he was appointed Adjutant of the 91 OVI, and served nearly two years until discharged for physical disability. He was appointed Commissioner for the Board of Enrollment for the Eleventh District of Ohio in 1864, and Provost-Marshal of the same district in 1865.

In the discharge of the duties of the respective positions he has been called to fill he has displayed abilities of a high order. Endowed with great energy and perseverance, every duty is fully performed. His habits of mind will leave him satisfied with nothing less than the entire accomplishment, even to the minutest detail, of every task undertaken. While busily engaged in the active duties of life, he has nevertheless devoted himself assiduously to the acquisition of knowledge, and his investigations have led him into many different fields of inquiry. His sphere of knowledge embraces literature, science, philosophy, professional studies and all the leading topics of the day. His knowledge is not superficial but accurate, thorough and profound. He is a ripe scholar. While his perceptive faculties may not be so quick, nor his processes of thought so rapid as many other men, yet his views are clear, profound and comprehensive. He has great ability as a writer in poetry as well as in prose. In his character as a citizen, he is without reproach. He has positive opinions upon most political and social questions, and in his expression of them he is fearless and outspoken. In all his views he is entirely upright and conscientious. He has been a member of the Methodist Church from infancy, and in all the relations of life his conduct has been in entire accord with his professions, than which there can be no higher praise.
