one days he waded in water from ankle to waist depth in a flat, overflowed country, flooded by ten days of constant rain, day and night. He had to swim sometimes, often breaking the ice from the surface. He rafted across rivers and bayous. Slowly and pain- fully he made his way through the swamps and canebrake in eastern Texas and western Louisiana, subsisting mainly on parched corn until he reached the Union lines at Brashier, now Morgan, Louisiana. He was in a pitiful condition. Every toenail was worn or torn from his feet, which were a mass of blisters, and his constitution was irreparably injured. At the close of the war Lientenant Loring entered the reventie cutter service and attained the rank of first lieutenant. When ordered before the examining board for promotion to the rank of captain, he failed to meet the physical requirements and was placed on wait- ing orders. A special bill in the fifty-fifth con- gress to allow his promotion passed the sen- ate, May 20, 1897, but did not pass the house, and he was retired with the rank of lieutenant. He was in the audience of Ford's Theatre the night that Lincoln was assassinated there, and was one of the four men who carried the wounded president to the house in which he died.
He married, August 2, 1866, Nellie Cohoon, born February, 1842, in Madison, Lake county, Ohio, daughter of Frederick and Nancy (Car- penter ) Cohoon.

SMYTH This name is of Scotch origin. and is of comparatively recent importation to this country, hav- ing come by way of Ireland, where so many of the Scotch blood have grown up to be- come. later, American citizens. The family herein described was early located in south- ern New York, where it still has numerous able representatives.
(I) Alexander Smyth, born in the latter half of the eighteenth century, was of Scotch ancestry, and resided in county Derry, Ire- land, where his ancestors took part in the famous defense of Londonderry in 1689-90. being among the supporters of the Prince of Orange, later King William, who sup- planted the Catholic rule in Ireland by that of the Protestant. He died in Aghadocy, Ire- land. November 5. 1851. He married Jenny Wilson, also descended from Scotch ances- tors, who were among the defenders of Lon- donderry. Both were buried at Garvagh. They had six children: I. James. 2. Catherine. married William Boyd, of Drummern, Ire- land. 3. Mary, wife of James Smith, of Brooklyn, New York. 4. Alexander, many
years master mechanic of the Pennsylvania railroad, died in Titusville, Pennsylvania. 5. William, mentioned below. 6. Jane.
(II) William, third son of Alexander and Jenny ( Wilson ) Smyth, was born June 19, 1819, in the town of Garvagh, county Derry, Ireland, and received a thorough classical edu- cation, after which he entered the Royal Academic Institute at Belfast, from which he was graduated in 1842, taking second honors in the Greek and moral philosophy classes. Subsequently he spent two years at Edinburgh University, under the tutelage of the noted Rev. Dr. Chalmers, and graduated in Divinity from there. For three succeeding years he was employed as a private tutor, and after this was principal of a classical school of county Derry. Having decided to settle in America, he sailed from Glasgow, Scotland, in 1847, in the ship "Warren," Captain Stan- ton, commander. After a voyage of six weeks and three days he arrived in New York, No- vember 27, of that year, and after a short time was employed in newspaper work on the New York Sun and New York Observer. He settled at Owego, New York, March 4. 1848, and was engaged by the trustees of Owego Academy as principal. Entering upon this position. April 12, 1848, he continued until June. 1854, when he resigned on account of ill health. The most successful period in the history of the academy was that under his administration, when the management found it necessary to add three departments and six assistants were employed, with an average at- tendance of two hundred and fifty pupils. In company with others, Mr. Smyth purchased the Owego Advertiser in 1853. and the name was changed to the Southern Tier Times, the first number under that name being published June 2, 1853. Later Mr. Smyth purchased the interests of his associates and became sole owner and proprietor, issuing the first number under this condition, June 29, 1854. The name of the paper was changed to the Owego Times, June 7. 1855. In 1872 Mr. Smyth ad- mitted his son, William A. Smyth, as partner, and from that time to the present the paper has been published under the name of Will- iam Smyth & Son. In 1857 the senior was elected school commissioner of Tioga county and re-elected in 1860 by a majority of one thousand and twelve votes. In the same year he was appointed village clerk; served in 1863-64 as trustee of the village and was presi-

.dent from 1865 to 1867. In the latter year he was appointed justice of the peace, and in 1872 represented Tioga county in the as- sembly. In December of that year he was appointed deputy superintendent of the state insurance department, which office he held three years, being acting superintendent for one year, following the resignation of O. W. Chapman. During his incumbency a rigid examination of insurance companies was be- gun and resulted in the indictment of the offi- cers of the Security Life Insurance Company of New York. Pending their examination frauds were discovered and Acting Superin- tendent Smyth energetically pressed the case. securing the indictment and conviction of its president, this being the first instance in the history of life insurance in this state where the president of a company was convicted.
Mr. Smyth always took a commendable in- terest in the material development of the vil- lage of Owego, and many improvements were consummated during the time he served as president. Among these may be mentioned the purchase of the first steam fire engine. In 1862-63-64, he was chief engineer of the village fire department, which organization owes much of its present efficiency to his en- ergy and enterprise. In 1881 he was elected president of the village for the fourth time. and during this term he secured a free bridge across the Susquehanna river. This had ex- iste 1 as a toll bridge for a period of fifty years, and was one of the greatest obstruc- tions to the material progress of the village and its growth in population. With the assis- tance of many of the most progressive citi- zens, he succeeded in completing a fund of twenty-five thousand dollars in cash, or equiv- alent securities, which was paid to the bridge company on the last day of his term, securing thereby a warranty deed to the town of Owego. Mr. Smyth was active and efficient in bringing about the organization of the Re- publican party in the state. He was chair- man of the Whig delegation from Tioga county at the Syracuse convention in 1856, and with Hon. John A. King, president of that convention. marched from Corinthian Hall to Whiting Hall, where a combination of the Free Soil Democrats and Anti-Slavery Whigs resulted in the birth of the Republican party. On December 16, 1884, Mr. Smyth was ap- pointed by President Harrison postmaster of Owego, and held this position four years. In
1890 he was delegated by Secretary Folger to locate the government building in Buffalo. He died in Owego, September 27, 1898, in his eightieth year.
Mr. Smyth married, in Ireland, 1847, Mar- tha, daughter of Daniel Stuart Mackay, Esq., of Moss Side, county Antrim, who was a large lan 1 holder and linen manufacturer: was grand master of Orangemen of the north of Ireland. She was born July 12, 1826, and died in Owego, New York, May 26. 1882. Children : 1. Wilhelmina Wilson, born May 5. 1850. 2. William Alexander, mentioned be- low. 3.

(III) William Alexander, eldest son of William and Martha ( Mackay ) Smyth, was born March 14, 1852, in Owego, New York, where most of his life has been passed. His education was supplied by the public schools of his native village and the city of Syracuse. For a period of three years, in early life, he was engaged in the drug busi- ness, and in 1872 became identified with the Owego Times, founded by his father eightcen years previously, and soon after the death of the latter in 1898, he became sole owner and proprietor of that journal. For many years he had been a partner in its publication and still retains the firm name of William Smyth & Son. From early manhood he has been identified with the Republican party, taking an active part in its councils and workings. For the past twenty-five years he has been a delegate to every state convention of the party and was a delegate from the twenty-sixth New York district in two national conventions. He has been chairman of the Republican county committee of Tioga for twenty-three years : is a member of the Republican Club of the City of New York, and exerts a wide in- fluence in political matters throughout the state. He was appointed postmaster of Owego, May 26, 1897, by President McKin- ley : December 17, 1901, by President Roose- velt : December 13. 1905, by President Roose- velt : December 16, 1909, by President Will-

TUTHILL The surname Tuthill is spelled also Totyl, Totehill, and Tuttle, and is derived from tot-hill, a mound. Blomefield, the historian of Norfolk, has written of several tumuli near Thetford. Norfolk, England, the largest of which is called tut-hill. These were doubtless raised by the Danes to cover their dead after the battle with King Edmund, A. D. 871. The arms of the Norfolk family are: Or, on a chevron azure, three crescents argent. Crest : A leopard passant, sable, crowned or, on a mound vert. The arms are on the tomb of Elizabeth, wife of Sir Roger Dalyson, and daughter of William Tuthill, in Trowse-with- Newton, Norfolkshire, England; she died September 27. 1585, aged eighteen.

(VI) Richard M. Tuthill was the son of one of the two brothers or cousins, mentioned above. As far as possible, the Orange county branch has been given in full, but the records are lacking to show the parentage of Richard M. In 1790, the first federal census shows that John Tuthill was of New Cornwall and had in his family one son under sixteen and two females ; Susannah (widow of Daniel) was the head of another family, and Daniel, doubtless Daniel Jr., had three males over sixteen, one under sixteen and two females in his family, all at New Cornwall, Orange county.

Freegift Tuthill was prominent in the county ; member of the Westtown Turn- pike Company in 1812, residing in Minisink. Jonathan Tuthill was living in Minisink in 1810, as was also John in district No. 15. Richard M.

In the early records the name Doty is spelled Dotey, Dotie, Dottey and Dote. At times the spelling Doughty is used, although it does not belong to the family, and the Doughty family is of a different origin.
(I) Samuel Doty, son of Edward and Faith (Clarke) Doty, was born at Plymouth, on the High Cliff, probably in 1643. The first men- tion of him on record is January I, 1667-68, at Plymouth, when he was on a coroner's jury in an inquest on a child kept by John Smalley Sr., of Eastham, on Cape Cod, which had been found dead in the woods. On July 16, 1668, he conveyed land in Dartmouth, which he had inherited from his father, to Benajah Dunham. He lived in Eastham at that time. In "Freeman's History of Cape Cod." there is a record: "In the year 1669, a vessel was cast ashore on Cape Cod, and a controversy arose between Thos. More, the claimant and owner of the cargo, and Sam- uel Doty and others of Eastham. in regard to salvage; and agreement was finally con- cluded October 29th. 1669, and sanctioned by the Court." Another record says : "14th 2d month 1668 Thomas More's vessel cast away at Cape Cod in ye storm wrin 4 persons perished and much wealth was lost." On Oc- tober 29, 1669. there is a record of a trans-
action between More and Doty regarding the wreck.

In 1678 he took out a marriage license. He was on the list of freeholders in 1682, and from 1678 to 1696 his name is on several deeds as a purchaser of lands in the vicinity. In 1707 a congregation of Sev- enth Day Baptists was formed in Piscataway, and he and his son joined the congregation. His will was dated September 18, 1715, and proved November 8, 1715, and in it he be- queathed most of his property to his wife, who was executrix. He married, November 15, 1678, Jane Harmon. Children, born at Piscataway : Samuel, August 27, 1679; Sarah, March 2, 1681-82; Isaac, August 12, 1683; Edward, May 14, 1685: James, Sep- tember 17, 1686; Jonathan, February 24, 1687-88; Benjamin, mentioned below ; Eliza- beth, February 26, 1695 ; Joseph, October 30, 1696; Daniel, March 9, 1701-02: Margaret, March 5, 1704-05; (The next two are found on the town register.)

(II) Benjamin, son of Samuel Doty, was born at Piscataway, New Jersey, May 14, 1691, died at Princeton, New Jersey, in 1746. In 1725 he was living in Burlington county, New Jersey. On March 20, 1739, he was ap- pointed guardian of Samuel Stockton. an orphan aged fifteen.

Chil- dren : Benjamin, mentioned below ; Susan- nah, Hannah, Deborah.
(III) Benjamin (2), son of Benjamin ( I) Doty, was born probably in Middlesex county, New Jersey, about 1710-13. On Oc- tober 8, 1725, Jonathan Whitehead deeded to his grandson, Benjamin, land in Minisink in counties of Ulster and Orange. In the years 1778 and 1779 he gave other deeds of land to Andrew Clark McNish, Berzalael Seely, and to John Everett. He married Ra- chel - in Middlesex county.
