seminaries, and the president and teachers of these institutions, if made of the proper stuff, led anxious lives during the school session because of the young men's pranks. In some way Minor Millikin incurred the wrath of one of the presidents. He was the "honor orator" of his society at the winter exhibition. This president, with many young ladies of the school, were in attendance at the exercises. The orator of the evening, seeing an opportunity for sweet revenge, left his announced oration, and took for his subject the prevailing system of female educa- tion, and for an hour made "courteous fun " of the president's methods.


He graduated in 1854, and went to Harvard Law School, where he took an active part in stirring debates before the Law School Congress on the slavery question. An attempt was made by southern students to break up the meetings-acting much as Southern senators do at Wash- ington. Two students led the opposition to this attempt, one being George W. Smalley, son-in-law to Wendell Phillips, and the other the subject of this notice.


After leaving Harvard, he entered the law office of Thomas Corwin. A year later he was married and started on a bridal tour in Europe, which lasted a twelvemonth. After his return he bought the Hamilton Intelligencer, the Republican paper for Butler county, and was its editor for two years; then sold and retired to his farm.


The war now came on and he enlisted in the cavalry. As the govern- ment could not furnish horses in time to get the company off to West Virginia, he advanced funds for the purchase of twenty-four. After a campaign of three months he was endorsed by his commanders as the best cavalry officer in that department; a recommendation which aided him in securing the appointment of major of the Ist Ohio Cavalry. When the colonel of this command resigned, Major Millikin was pro- moted to fill the vacancy; an action which excited such jealousy that he was ordered before a board of regular officers for examination, to prove if the charges of incompetency could be sustained. He passed the examination and received the highest compliments of the examiners. In the battle of Stone River he ordered a charge with the expectation of being supported by the infantry, but the little band of cavalry found itself cut off from retreat and surrounded by a superior force. While engaged in a hand to hand fight he was shot in the neck and almost in- stantly killed. His remains were recovered and brought back to Ham- ilton. In his will he expressed a wish that he should be buried without pomp; that a slab of native stone, over which wild vines might grow, should mark his resting place; and then he added : "Let it be forgotten that I am there."


Prof. David Swing, of Chicago, who was intimately acquainted with him, said at the time of his death: "The soul of Minor was of the intense school. What he was, he was thoroughly; whom he liked, he liked deeply; whom he disliked, he disliked cordially. * *


* His mind was many-sided. To the taste for literature he added a love for the practical in ordinary life. He was philosophic and romantic, ready to lecture upon reform or to weave together such thoughts as might win for one the title of a poet. He loved that progress that comes by a better education, and he loved also that progress of ideas which comes through the sword. He was ready to teach kindly a little child or to

meet his foe with terrible force upon the battlefield. Talented, origi- nal, independent, brave, he was also affectionate and religious. He had some faults, but far more virtues, and the deformity of the former fades from our sight while we look upon the beauty of the latter, just as the spots upon the sun are not remembered while we stand in the fields of June." He left one son, of whom hereafter.

4. REV. JOSEPH,5 b. Jan. 28, 1840; m. July 25, 1865, Emily, dau. of Samuel Brown, of Trenton, N. J., and d. at Hamilton, Ohio, Nov. 14, 1883. He attended at the old Miami University, where he graduated in 1859. He was a very precocious child and, like most such, of a delicate con- stitution; for this reason he was not allowed in school for several years, but nevertheless graduated at the age of nineteen. After leaving the university he went to Minnesota with his friend and classmate, Whitelaw Reid, where he "roughed it" for a while. He next went to Princeton Theological Seminary. He went to Europe in 1861 and again in 1862, in which year he was licensed to preach, and began at New Paris, Preble county, Ohio, where he remained until the spring of 1863, when ill health compelled him to make another trip abroad. He preached at times until 1871, when he accepted the chair of Greek in Miami Univer- sity. In 1873 he took the chair of Modern Languages and Literature in the Ohio State University, where he remained till 1881. That winter he spent in Florida, hoping to gain back his health, but in vain, for he came back not improved, and soon died. His mind, so philosophical in his earlier years, later took a turn toward living nature, and one passion with him was botany. His preaching was hardly up to the standard of


orthodoxy adopted by his Presbyterian congregations, and as he could not conscientiously preach according to the teachings of that body he gradually ceased. He was a man of great industry, but his work was never temperately done ; it was performed in such a way and at such a time that stronger constitutions than his would have broken down.

6. DR. DANIEL,5 b. April 17, 1845; m. Oct. 9, 1866, Amanda, youngest dau. of William and Anna (Jeneper) Hunter. His early life was spent on the farm and at the country and public schools of Hamilton, Ohio. He graduated from the high school in 1862-3, and in 1863-4 he at- tended the Sheffield School at Yale, giving attention mostly to chemistry; with his young wife began housekeeping on his father's farm in 1866, and remained nine years, doing outdoor work and studying. During the summer of 1873, the year of the Greeley campaign, while on a visit to Minneapolis, he contributed some editorials to the Minneapolis Times, a paper devoted to Horace Greeley, and edited by Mr. Plinny Bartlett, formerly of Hamilton, Ohio. The journalistic fever was now very strong on him; life on the farm hardly offered the opportunities he desired, and he sought a larger sphere. Finally he devoted his time to the study of medicine, and attended Miami Medical College, from which he grad- uated in 1875. He has since been actively engaged in practice in Hamilton, Ohio. From 1886 to 1893 he filled the chair of "Chemistry, Medical Jurisprudence, and Materia Medica and Therapeutics," in

Miami Medical College. In 1893 he resigned from the faculty because he could not spend the time in Cincinnati necessary for his duties. Dr. Millikin has been a prolific writer on pedagogics, especially on physio- logical lines. On several occasions he has delivered addresses in neigh- boring counties, on that and kindred subjects. He contributed the sketch of Butler county in " Butler County Art Work," a book recently issued in Chicago. He also wrote an article for the "Centennial Sou- venir Book of Hamilton," on the literary men of the city, not yet pub- lished. His many papers on medical subjects are made doubly attrac- tive by his rare literary style. Though not yet fifty years old he is, with one exception, the senior physician of Hamilton engaged in active prac- tice. In this family there were four children, of whom more hereafter.

MILLIKENS OF JUNIATA, PA.


There is no authentic record of the first settlement of this branch of the Milliken family in Pennsylvania. Family tradition, with a chronology ranging from 1758 to 1770, has three brothers, THOMAS, MICHAEL, and JAMES, come from the north of Ireland, of whom Michael died on the voyage, and Thomas and James settled in Chester county, Pa. This branch of the family is de- scended from old Presbyterian stock and many of the name adhere to that denomination, to which a number of ministers has been given, one at least of world-wide fame and one missionary to China. Naturally extremely conserv- ative, the family, for the greater part, have been Democrats, though many left the party on the slavery issue, and recently a good number have joined with the Prohibitionists. Born mechanics, the tendency has been toward wood- working and mechanical engineering. Many have been and are farmers, some of them prominent as Patrons of Husbandry. A good number are now in professional life.


Thomas Milliken1 settled in what is now Spruce Hill township, Juniata county, Pa., sometime between 1760 and 1770, and "took up" several thou-

sand acres of land there. He married Jane McConnell, a dau. of one of the first settlers in the Tuscarora valley. At the beginning of the Revolution he, with several neighbors, walked to Lancaster, Pa., where they joined a com- pany of expert riflemen then being made up. This company was a part of the second regiment and was sent to Cambridge, where they arrived Aug. 4, 1775, and took part in the later engagements in that locality, under General Lee. He was with Arnold at Quebec and during the expedition he rendered valuable service as a spy. Later in the war he served under Putnam and was attached to Washington's staff. In 1778, completely broken down by long marches, exposure to cold, and hunger, he was sent home and soon died. He was buried in the "McKee graveyard." His sons were: JOHN,2 JAMES,2 EDWARD,2 SAMUEL,2 and THOMAS2; probably several daughters.
