Mr. Taylor returned from the war with shattered health, which it took him a year to regain. After being partially restored he attended school at Falley and Cazenovia semi- naries, maintaining himself in school by teaching winters. After completing his education he taught school ten years.
In the spring of 1870 he was elected collector of the town of Granby. In June of the same year he was commissioned United States census marshal for the town of Granby. In
1876 he entered the field with thirteen others as a candidate for county elerk. He received the nomination on the seventh hallot, by a vote of one hundred and six to seventy- one. Ile was elected by a majority of three thousand and sixty-three, running ahead of the electoral ticket two hun- dred and sixty-four votes. lle always took an active interest in polities, being a Republican from principle, and labored energetically for the success of his party. He makes a capital officer, and is in every respect a promising yonng man.

HISTORY OF OSWEGO COUNTY, NEW YORK.
BENJAMIN DOOLITTLE.
Benjamin Doolittle was born in Lenox, Madison county, New York, in the month of December, 1825. He attended the common schools, and there acquired an education that well qualified him for a business carcer, and without wait- ing for a college course stepped out into the broad arena of active life. In 1847 he came to Oswego, and three years thereafter engaged in the hardware business, which he suc- cessfully managed until 1863, when he purchased the Em- pire mills and elevator in the city of Oswego, and has since given his personal attention to that business. Mr. Doo- little has always manifested an interest in public matters, and the people have shown their appreciation of his services by electing him to various positions of influence and responsi- bility. Upon the organization of the Republican party he
A.LITTLE. PHILA
B. Doutility
espoused its cause, and has since labored to advance the interest and usefulness of that grand organization.
In 1858 he was chosen a member of the board of edu- cation of Oswego, and in the discharge of his duties so commended himself to his fellow-citizens that he was con- tinued in the board for nine years, and in 1866 was presi- dent of the board. He was chosen a member of the com- mon council of Oswego in 1867, and held that position two years. In 1869 he represented the first district of Oswego County in the legislature, and served on the import- ant committees on railroads and printing. He was a mem- ber of the board of police commissioners of Oswego from 1870 to 1874, and during the last two years was president of the board. He was elected mayor of the city in 1874, and in 1875 was elected State senator from the twenty-first district, defeating two opponents, Isaac G. Jenkins (Liberal Republican) and Joseph Crawford (Prohibitionist), by a
plurality of two thousand and sixteen votes. At the pre- vious election Charles Kellogg, the Republican candidate, was elected by one thousand four hundred and forty-three majority.
Senator Doolittle's record in the legislature is a credit to himself, and the twenty-first district may justly consider itself fortunate in being represented by so faithful and efficient a member.
ORVILLE ROBINSON
has occupied a prominent place in the history of Oswego County. He was born on the 28th of October, 1801, at Richfield, in the county of Otsego, and State of New York, -a town then quite obscure, but which has since become famous as one of the fashionable watering-places of the country. His parents emigrated from New England at the close of the Revolutionary war to the then far west, and took up their abode in the wilds of Otsego county. His early years were spent amid the hardships and privations of pioneer life. The only aid he received in acquiring an education was from the scanty and precarious instruction of the district school. His own energy and diligence did the rest. But in the struggles against these adverse circum- stances of his youth habits of industry and self-denial were formed, and a vigor of body and of mind and a strength and firmness of character were developed, which distinguished him in after-years and enabled him to outstrip, in the race for the prizes of life, many of his contemporaries who had enjoyed the advantages of the academy and the college.
When about twenty-one years of age, Mr. Robinson com- menced the study of the law in the office of the late Veeder Greene, at Brighton, and finished his legal clerkship in the office of the late Daniel Gott, at Pompey Hill, in the county of Onondaga. William H. Shankland, afterwards justice of the supreme court for the sixth judicial district of New York, was his fellow-student in the office of Mr. Gott, and many lawyers who have attained distinction re- ceived their preparatory legal training about the same time at Pompey Hill.
In 1827, at the May term of the supreme court held in the city of New York, Mr. Robinson was admitted to practice as an attorney of that court, and in July following he opened a law-office in what is now the village of Mexico (then a small hamlet), in the county of Oswego.
On the 12th of July, 1827, he was married to Miss Lucretia Greene, of Richfield, a daughter of Wardwell Greene, and the sister of his first instructor in the law. Mrs. Robinson was born in February, 1802, in the county of Schoharie, and State of New York. Her father was a native of Rhode Island, and a relative of Major-General Nathaniel Greene of Revolutionary memory. He was also a soldier in the war of the Revolution, was severely wounded in battle, and for many years received a pension from the United States government.
It should also be stated that both of the grandfathers of Mr. Robinson were citizen soldiers. Both rendered active service in the so-called French war of 1755, and both, as

HAMILTON MURRAY.
HAMILTON MURRAY was born in New York city in the year 1804, the same year, as he often used to remark, that General Hamilton fell, and only a few months after that sad event. After the usual preliminary studies, he entered Yale College, where he spent three years with credit to his capacity and character, finishing his course with honor. After gradu- ating be prepared himself for mercantile life. Subsequently he embarked in business, and became a prominent merchant in the city of New York. His career in that capacity extended through a number of years, some of them the most trying, financially that our country has ever witnessed. He was in the course of his business life a member of various firms, involv- ing many associations, and giving rise to an extensive experi- ence. We will not attempt to pursue his business life, for it was similar to that of many valued men of the same generation who have stood in the same lot in life.
In 1834 he went abroad for the benefit of his health. In the course of his tour of thirteen months he visited England, Germany, France, and Italy, and returned quite restored and prepared to resume his usual routine of duty, for occupation was ever to him a necessity and a pleasure. While Mr. Murray was a resident of New York he devoted much time, care, and thought to benevolent objects.
He was for many years a manager of the Institution for the Blind, and to them a devoted, intelligent, and discrimina- ting friend and patron. He was one of the founders of the Northern Dispensary in that city. He was a member of the board of trustees of that institution from its organization for more than twenty years, until he removed in 1846, and the records bear testimony that "to no man more than Mr. Murray are the inhabitants of that city indebted for the present eleva- ted and prosperous condition of that institution, and its wide- 'epread and yearly increasing usefulness." To the poor, espe- cially the siek poor, he was ever actively benevolent. He also took great interest in the earlier efforts to improve public schools in that city, as well as in Oswego. Every one who knew Mr. Murray will appreciate how persistent, practicable, and devoted he was in whatever he took an interest. Although
at the time of his death his connection with those institutions had been severed, he is still remembered and spoken of by those who were associated with him.
About 1846, Mr. Murray having closed his most important connection with the city of New York, removed to Oswego, where he had become the owner of a large and valuable real estate. Since then, until the time of his death, he resided with his family at his country seat called "Greenvale," a place which was the work of his own hands, and which he named after the country seat of his father. During his resi- dence in Oswego he was ever active and efficient in promoting its material interests. He was one of the original stockholders and directors of the City Bank at its organization, and presi- dent of the same until the failure of his health in 1865, which compelled him to resign. He was also at one time president of the Agricultural Society of Oswego County, in which he took a deep interest; a director of the Syracuse and Bingham- ton Railroad, and was active in initiating and promoting that work. He was likewise one of the board of trustees of the New York Inebriate Asylum at the organization of that in- stitution, and withdrew from the position after two years' service.
A few years before his deatb, which occurred December 80, 1866, Mr. Murray's health began to give way, and although every effort which medicine and travel could suggest was made to remove the cause and restore him to health, he gradually and steadily declined.
It is not necessary to enlarge upon the character of Mr. Murray. He was a man of large experience in the affairs of the world, of decided abilities, of great courage, perseverance, and industry, and of marked integrity. A good citizen, a benevolent man, a kind friend, an admirable son, a devoted husband and father, his praise has been spoken by many. We close in the words of one who knew him : "Having known him for many years, having esteemed and appreciated his many excellent qualities, both of mind and heart, we would add our tribute to his memory, feeling, however, that it might be more worthily done by a better pen."

captains of companies, shared in the efforts and perils of the American Revolution.
It might be expected that the descendants of such an- cestors would not be deaf to the call of their country in her hour of danger. Age had unfitted Mr. Robinson for the performance of military service in the late civil war, but his sympathies were with the government in all lawful efforts to suppress rebellion and maintain the union of the States, and his contributions to that end were freely given. ITis son, Colonel Wardwell G. Robinson, however, under a eall of the president for more men, closed his law-office, took command of the One Hundred and Eighty-fourth Regiment of New York Volunteers, went to the front, and continued in active service until his regiment was mustered out at the close of the war.
In the first year of Mr. Robinson's residence in Mexico he was elected to the office of justice of the peace, and, in the succeeding year, to that of town clerk.
In 1830 he was appointed by Governor Throop surrogate of Oswego County, and continued to discharge the duties of that office for eight years, having been re-appointed by Governor Marcy in 1834.
In the years 1834 and 1836 he represented the county in the assembly of the State; and, in 1837, the county being entitled to two members of assembly, he was elected as one of them.
In the mean time his professional business had been in- ereasing in extent and importance. He had been admitted to the highest grades of bis profession in the State and Fed- eral courts, and had attained a prominent position among the lawyers of central New York.
In 1841 he was appointed district attorney of the county, and held the office for two years.
In 1843 he was elected to represent the newly-formed district, comprising the counties of Oswego and Madison, in the Congress of the United States, and in the same year he was elected supervisor of the town of Mexico.
In 1847 he removed from Mexico to the then village, now city, of Oswego, where he has since resided.
In 1853 he was elected recorder of the city. The police duties connected with that office being distasteful to him, he resigned it during the same year.
In 1855 he was for the fourth time elected to represent his district in the assembly of the State, and was chosen speaker of that body.
In 1858 he was appointed by President Buchanan col- lector of customs for the district of Oswego; and, after having discharged the responsible duties of that office ac- ceptably to the government and to the publie for two years, he resigned it, and has since held no official position, and has taken no active part in political affairs.
Mr. Robinson is now the oldest living member of the Oswego County bar. For the last twenty years he has not been actively engaged in the duties of his profession, but for the thirty years preceding that period he was a constant attendant upon the courts, representing numerous and im- portant interests.
As a general lawyer he stood high. Those who sought advice at his chambers found him a wise and prudent coun- selor. But his professional success was more especially due
to the skill and ability which he evineed in the trial of causes at nisi prius. ITis addresses to the jury, though quite devoid of rhetorical embellishments, were clear, forci- ble, and persuasive, and the earnestness with which they were delivered, united with the respeet entertained for the speaker, made them very effective.
The numerous and important official positions held by Mr. Robinson, both by election and appointment, suffi- ciently attest the respect and confidence with which he has been regarded by his fellow-citizens ; and when we consider that every trust committed to his care, whether public or private, has been intelligently, faithfully, and honestly dis- charged, and that he has been enabled to spend his de- elining years in dignified retirement, free from the cares and anxieties of business, and in the enjoyment of the un- diminished confidence and respect of all who know him, we must pronounce his a useful and a successful life.
MRS. LUCRETIA ROBINSON
died April 21, 1876, in the seventy-fourth year of her age. She was the mother of four children,-three sons and one daughter,-two of whom survive her.
As a wife, mother, neighbor, and friend, she performed all her duties and obligations with a serupulous regard to the right, and with a personal unselfishness rarely met with. She sympathized with the poor and afflicted, and, as far as in her power, relieved their wants. She eneour- aged the weak, comforted the sorrowful, and animated the weary. Her religious belief was the result of a logical mind devoted to the acquisition of knowledge, and ani- mated with a strong desire to solve the mysteries and problems of ereation. Her investigation and reflection led her to results at variance with her early religious impres- sions and opinions. To do good was the religion of her mature years. She believed in one Supreme Power unde- finable and incomprehensible. She not only believed that the universe was governed by unchangeable law, but that physical and moral actions were subject to the same rule,- that every act, whether for good or evil, is unerringly visited by its appropriate consequences. She believed in the progressive development of all animated nature from a lower to a higher condition, and that man and the spirit was the ultimate result of such development. She believed in the immortality of the life of every animated thing, and that change was written upon all things, annihilation upon none. She believed in the individual, conscious immortal- ity of man ; that the Creator has made no mistakes; and that man alone of all animated nature desires to live here- after, and if that desire was not to be gratified it would not have been implanted in his breast.
So believing, Death was to her a welcome and kind mes- senger to relieve her from her material body which had served her for so many years and had performed the object of its organization. For her Death threw open the door that she might enter upon a new state of eternally-continued progressive existence.
