“Dr. Nelson Lucius Dow was born in Albany June 8, 1861 the son of Luther C. and Lovina (Dewey) Dow. After his early education , in the public, schools, he attended Craftsbury academy. For a time he taught school to enable him to further complete his own education, which he did by taking up the study of medicine, first at U.V. M. and later at the Hahneman medical college at Chicago, where he received his degree in 1887. He practiced for a few months in Irasburg and then went to Sheffield where he remained for five and half years. In May of 1893 he came to Glover and has for more than 21 years been the only physician in town, having a large practice over a wide range of territory. He was a member of the Vermont Medical society, was on the board of pension examiners, also examiner for the several life insurance companies, a Mason, a member of Glover grange, Independent Telephone company, a member of the I. O. U. A. M. until since his health began to fail he withdrew his name.
In 1889 he married Lilla B., daughter of Ira T. Pierce of Albany. One child, a daughter, Grace, was born to them, April 4, 1897. A very practical, matter-of-fact man in all that he said and did, and his life and his influence has always been on the" side of honest right living and the town has lost, what no town can well spare, a citizen whose clean morality and good principles helped to upbuild the character of the place and whose voice and deed was ever against wrong-doing and aught that was degrading to people or place. Although he himself has evidently feared that his life work was nearly done, only those who saw him most frequently knew it, and even they never dreamed the end was so near. . .
. . . Of his brothers and sisters there survive him one brother, Wallace Dow of Hardwick, " and four sisters, Mrs. W. W. Miles of Barton and three others. The wife and daughter left so completely alone have the sympathy of everyone. Interment was at Riverside cemetery, Glover.” (Orleans County Monitor, 9 Dec 1914)
