When a young man he attended the North Western Ohio Normal (Northern?)

In 1879 he commenced the study of law under the tuition of Thos. Y. McCray, of Mansfield, and in June, 1881, at Columbus, Ohio, was admitted to the practice of law in the several courts of this State, and by diligent study and close application he has identified himself with the Richland County Bar, as well as the politics of his native county, as one of the rising young attorneys, striving for an honorable place in the profession.
