ELEAZAR DANAt was the first resident attorney of the present county of Tioga. He was born in Ashford, Wind- ham Co., Conn., Aug. 12, 1772. His father was one of the unfortunate colonists from Connecticut who settled in Luzerne Co., Pa., and lost his life in the fearful slaughter at Wyoming, July 3, 1778, he of whom we write being a boy of but six years, and the youngest child of the family. His widowed mother then returned to her Eastern friends and relatives, but ultimately came back with at least two of her sons and one daughter. Mr. Dana was not a collegiate, but was principally self-taught in the higher branches of an academic education ; was a close, thorough student and pro- found thinker. He pursued his legal studies with Hon. Vincent Mathews, of Elmira (then Newtown), teaching school both at Bath and Newtown during his studentship. He was admitted to the bar in 1800, and immediately located in Owego. His practice was a general and successful one, and he was equally distinguished as counselor or advocate. Being fully convinced of the justice of his cause, he brought the strength and force of his own truthfulness and integrity, and such legal science as the closest research could develop, to bear upon the conduct of the trial, aided by a manner of singular grace and dignity. He held firm political views as a Federalist and Whig, but was not a politician in the present meaning of the term, never sought office, and was seldom on the side of the office-giving power. He was district attorney of the county from 1823 to 1826, and Supreme Court commissioner for a time. He was Presbyterian in religious faith, and a ruling elder of that church for the last fifteen years of his life. He died in 1845, nearly seventy-three years of age.

Two sons, also lawyers, survived him,-Cyrus, a resident of Owego for a time, and of Niles, Mich., where he died, December, 1847 ; and A. H. Dana, of New York City, from 1827 till the present time, where he has attained a fair eminence as an advocate and a chancery lawyer, and also made himself a name in the world of literature as au author and a contributor to reviews and magazines.

daughters also survive, who married lawyers (as did two others who died before their father,-Mrs. Edward Rad- cliffe and Mrs. Henry S. Walbridge), Charlotte, now Mrs. George H. Jerome, of Niles, Mich., and Helen, now Mrs. Wm. F. Warner, of Waverly.

JOHN H. AVERY was the sceond lawyer to take up his abode in Owego, to which plaee he came in 1801.

WILLIAM PLATT, the third attorney to locate in the present limits of Tioga County, was born in Westchester Co., N. Y., and removed to Nichols when he was six years old, with his father. He was self-educated, and pursued his legal studies with John H. Avery, with whom he formed a law partnership immediately on his admission to the bar in 1814. His praetice was a general one, and for many years he was the agent for the sale of lands in Coxe's Manor. He was a man of singular purity of life, and in- tegrity unquestioned. Those who had dealings with him, whether purchasers or sellers, found in him one serupulously just to the last farthing. It is said of him, " Few men have lived of whom it could be so justly said, ' His was a blameless life ; he was a man without guile.'" He died in 1865, aged sixty-three years. His son, Thomas C. Platt, was. a member of Congress 1873-77, and his son Frederick is and has been for some years cashier of the Tioga National Bank, of Owego.

Connecting the bar of the past and that of the present are two venerable attorneys, IIon. John J. Taylor and George Sidney Camp, Esq., who stand midway on the threshold of the temple, and look backward to the legal jousts and tournaments of the earlier days, and forward to those of the present, having participated in both. When for them " the silver eord shall be loosed" the old attorneys of Tioga will have all passed beyond recall, and the memo- ries of the olden time will be all that is left of it for the present to treasure.

JOHN J. TAYLOR was born in Leominster, Worcester Co., Mass. in 1808, was educated at Harvard College, from which he graduated in 1829. He removed to Troy in 1830, where he pursued his legal studies chiefly with Judge David Buel. He also read law for a while with John Payne and with John A. Collier, of Binghamton, and was admitted to the bar in 1833, in the Supreme Court in Albany, while residing in Greene, Chenango Co. He located in Owego in 1835, forming a law partnership with Judge Strong, with whom he continued three and a half years, and has been engaged in the practice from that day to the present. His earlier practice was confined principally to land controversics, but his practice as a whole may be deemed a general one. He was District Attorney from 1839 to 1844, a Supreme Court Commissioner, delegate to the Constitutional Conven- tion of 1846, and represented his district in Congress in 1855-57. Mr. Taylor has been a prominent politieian of the Democratic school for many years. A brother member of the bar says of Mr. Taylor, " He is fully equal as a lawyer to Judge Parker, is a superior advocate, not so much for eloquence or flights of fancy as for his address to the common sense of a jury on the merits of his ease, and is a formidable antagonist by reason of his close analysis of evidence, and his power and tact to turn to his advantage any facts in the case."

GEORGE SIDNEY CAMP was born in Owego in 1816, was educated at Yale College and the New York University, but closed his course in the latter before graduating, volun- tarily ; read law with Girardus Clark, of New York City, was admitted to the bar in 1837, and practiced three years in that city; in 1840 came to Owego and formed a law partnership with Judge Strong, and has been ever sinee in an active general practice. While in New York he wrote a work entitled " Democraey," which was published as a number in Harper's Family Library, and which was trans- lated into the Spanish for use in Central America. Mr. Camp was District Attorney in 1843. He is considered one of the most profound lawyers of the circuit in which he practices, and has an excellent business.

At the laying of the corner-stone of the present court- house in 1871, Charles A. Munger, Esq., a gifted member of the bar, read a poem written by him for the occasion, which contains a brief characteristie allusion to the members of the bar who were dead, and others living, which we here insert. Mr. Munger himself is now dead, having died in 1877. The poem was entitled

THE OLD AND THE NEW.

It is done, and the Ashlar the Craftsman prepared, Duly shaped, duly plumbed, duly leveled and squared, Is laid, and the corn and the oil and the wine Are poured, and the grace of the Master Divine Is invoked on the work ! All is done and well done ; And a brave goodly toil is in gladness begun, Which may the Supreme Heavenly Architect guide To a glorious conclusion of beauty and pride, ---- To a splendor consummate, where Justice shall guard Her sword and her balance, with striet watch and ward, In her Temple,-a joy and a stronghold forever, Where Right over Wrong, in its eeaseless endeavor, New victories shall win,-as ever of yore It has battled and triumphed, aud shall evermore!

It is done ! And the Old must give place to the New. The old Forum, so old, yet so houest and true, With its fond, pleasant memories, bright as the day, Must give place to the new,-yes, must soon pass away. But those old recollections shall flourish in hearts Green for aye with all beauty that reverenee imparts ; For how shall we learn to forget those who made Its old walls resound as they wielded the blade Of eloquence, logic, or wit in the cause Of justice and right and our State's sacred laws ?

There stood DANA when that, our old forum, was new, The counselor calm, and the gentleman true, Who passed from brave life, full of honorable years, Beloved of all men, and deplored by their tears! And beside him stood PLATT, with his eautious reserve, But with heart fond and warm, and who knew not to swerve From rectitude's path, nor to fawn, nor to bend,- The lawyer, the Christian, the neighbor, the friend. There AVERY, the elder, too, towered erect In the brilliauee and splendor of proud intelleet, With a word of kind weleome for high and for low, And whose frieuds rose by thousands where one eowered a foe!

Aud how often those walls have re-echoed the zeal, The bold declamation, the ring of the steel Of th' old champion, STRONG, as he rose for the fray, And drawing his sword threw the scabbard away ! From the spur to the plume a just, valorous knight, Whose joy was the battle, the law his delight.

AND SCHUYLER COUNTIES, NEW YORK.

There, also, still lingers of SWEET's silvor tonguo The musical cehoes,-a man ever young In the quick, tender heart, in oppression's deep seorn, And who touched on no topie he failed to adorn ! And there, too, was LOVEJOY, who, clad o'er with truth, Passed away in fair promise and glorious youth !

But these aro all gone,-yes, they sleep on the shoro Where the rude waves of earth and of time break no more. They have passed from our vision, and left us to strew On their memories' shrine flowers of all tender hue, Of love, emulation, and reverence due,- Yes, th' Old passes away, and gives place to the New !

And forth from the doors of that time-honored place How many, set out in Ambition's stern race, Have touched the proud goal of repute and sueeess !- Genial AVERY, the judge, who achieved goodly fame, And in youth wore the ermine without stain or blame. WALKER, now in life's noontide hour filling the chair Whence Jefferson swayed Old Dominion's realm fair. TRACY, standing up shoulder to shoulder with all Who are brilliant in courts aud sagacious in hall. Young MADILL, in the light of his fair morning star, On the Beneh, and the joy and the pride of the Bar. CATLIN-BABCOCK-brave soldiers, who gave limb and life In the cause of the Union, in War's deadly strife. Yes, all these eome before us in bright glad review,- But the Old passes away and gives place to the New !

Then give place to the New ! Fairer structures must risc, And lift up their beauty and strength to the skies. Onward speedeth the world in Progression's swift car, And who heeds not its flight Time, the spoiler, will mar. The old court-house, with all its fond memories of yore, With its low dingy walls, narrow Bar, creaking floor, Its doves in the belfry, its rats in the vault, Must sink 'neath the surgings of Ruin's assault ! Let the new Temple rise, and within the proud fane May those elders we reverenee revered still remain ; Yea long, long remain, full of honor and years, To cheer with their counsels our hopes and our fears !

Here still may the dignified FARRINGTON's voice In words of considerate wisdom rejoiec ! May MUNGER, with white hair and old age serene, In honesty's mantle and vigor be seen ! May DAVIS, the faithful, the earnest, the true, His years and his strength, like the eagle, renew ! May NICHOLS in straightforward manliness stand, With his generous heart, and his strong helping hand ! May TAYLOR, with clear and with scholarly mind, As a puro chiseled column of marble refined, Still lend to the forum his chaste, firm support, And honor conter on cause, counsel, and court! And CAMP, like a star, shed the ealm, steady light Of au intelleet-one perfect, pure chrysolite- With a beam that shall know neither dinuness nor wane Till ho sets o'er the heights next eternity's plain ! Yet tho hours of their loftiest endeavors are flown ; Their laurels are gathered, their erowns are their own ; The almond-tree's blossom is wreathed with their bays, And their Juniors must war where they won iu their days.

And so when our Templo's prond eap-stone is laid, And its beautiful walls aro in splendor displayed, Here may wo our HANCOCK, tho genial soul, meet, With his foreo of a Strong, an l the music of Sweet, With his eloquent tongno, and his kindly, glad smile, To flatter, eonvinee, to confute, an l boguile, To gathor frosh laurels, and wreatho round his name The applause of the good, and tho chaplet of fame ! And PARKER, young PARKER, hero too may he stand In the pride of his lore, and his logic's command, Bidding Courts to the power of his keen geuius bend, And crown with snecess a bright, honorable end !

Here, too, in high argument oft may we hear The valorous Rouse and the chivalrie GERE, And list, as in logieal conflict they join, Prudent Nixon dissect, eautious WARNER refine ; Behold, as in contest they rise to their mettle, The versatile ALLEN, the keen, eager SETTLE, The pure, generous CLARK, the high-minded Scorr; PUMPELLY and EASTON, be they not forgot; Nor LOCK WOOD, nor EATON, nor DEXTER, nor FLOYD, Nor TozER, nor that ONE whose name / avoid.

May the ermine which rests on their shoulders who stand At the altar of Justice with ministering hand, Still rest where it rests as unspotted and pure, While the high holy office of Judge shall endure ! And here still may PARKER's ealm judgment refine ; May BALCOLA's quick reason and rare genius shine ; May BOARDMAN, with dignified bearing, preside, And MURRAY with all the high honors divide !

And long may this Temuple in majesty stand, A rock and a fortress of right o'er the land ! May it grow up in Beauty, column, wall, rail, and tower, The asylum of Justice, the emblem of power ; And our People, who rear it, hold their love and their awe Of their free constitution, tribunals, an l law !

And when we, who have gathered on this festal day, The chief corner-stone of our temple to lay, Shall have heard the last call of the Master of Love From labor to rest, and refreshment above, With our lamb-skins as pure as the snows white and driven, May we meet in His TEMPLE, eternal in Heaven !

THE MEDICAL PROFESSION.

Among the learned professions none are more eminent for erudition and general knowledge than that profession which acknowledges Galen and Hippocrates for its found- ers. The profession in Tioga County in its past and pres- ent ranks with the best in the State, and was organized early, among the first medical societies formed being that of the

TIOGA COUNTY MEDICAL SOCIETY,

which was organized Oct. 13, 1806, under the act of the Legislature of April 4, 1806, for the organization of such societies .*

The records of the Tioga County Medical Society show the following action had to organize the sauc : " At a respectable meeting of the physicians and sur- geons of the county of Tioga, for the purpose of form- ing a medical society, in conformity to the act of the As- sembly April 4, 1806, Dr. John Ross was chosen moder- ator, and the first medical society in Tioga County was then formed, and the following officers appointed for the ensuing year : Dr. Amos Park, President ; Dr. A. Gates

# The practice of physic and surgery in the city of New York was first regulated June 10, 1760. The first general regulation through- out the State was adopted March 23, 1797, which authorized the Chan- cellor, a Judge of the Supreme Court or Common Pleas, or a Master in Chancery to license physicians and surgeons on certain qualifica- tions. This act was revised, an l, with some amen Iments, passed April 4, 1801, and again Mareh 22, 1803. The law for the organization of the State Society was passed April 4, 1806, and the restriction on the practice of medicino without a diploma or license from the State, or a county society, or from a medical college, remained in foree until 1844, when it was removed. The law now makes no distinction between the different classes of practitioners except in regard to the collection of fees,-non-licensed practitioners collecting by law compensation for the time employed.

White, Vice-President; Dr. William Benson, Secretary ; Dr. John Ross, Treasurer; Drs. Elias Satterlee and Urial Bennett, Censors." This meeting was held in Newtown, and adjourned till Nov. 11, at the house of Mrs. Dunn, in the same place, but no quorum appeared, nor again on Dec. 4; but on Dec. 24 the society met and passed a resolution of co-operation in practice by the individual members with each other, and adopted the following fee-bill, and agreed to stand by it :

Traveling fees per mile, 25 cts. ; investigating complaint, $1.00 ; nocturnal visits, $1.00; attendance for every 12 hours, $3.00 ; phlebotomy, 25 cts. ; emetics, 25 cts. ; ca- thartics, 25 cts. ; spt. lavend. comp., 30 cts. ; spt. nitre dulc., 50 cts .; spts. cornu secali, 50 cts. ; febrifuges per dose, 6 cts .; elixir paregoric, per oz., 50 cts. ; unguentums, 25 cts. ; liquid lavender, per oz., 75 cts. ; pilulæ compd., per doz., 25 cts. ; elixir vitriol, per oz., 50 cts. ; epispastic, 50 cts. ; succus glycyr., 50 cts. ; gum guaiacum, per oz , 50 cts. ; gum aloes soc., 25 cts. ; gum arabic, 25 cts. ; gum cam- phor, 75 cts. ; gum opium, $1.00 ; anodynes, per dose, 12} cts. ; emp. rubr., 50 cts. ; enema, 75 cts. ; cort. peru. pulv., per oz., $1.00; mixt. stone complt., 50 cts. ; balsams stone complt., 50 cts. ; tinct. stone complt., 25 cts.

A code of by-laws was adopted, and a new code adopted in 1817. The sixth rule of the revised code required can- didates for examination to possess the following qualifica- tions : to be twenty-one years of age, of good reputation, and to be reading medicine with some respectable physician or surgeon ; and none could be licensed to practice unless he had a general knowledge of natural philosophy and chem- istry, and a thorough knowledge of the most approved systems of materia medica, anatomy, physiology, theory and practice of physic, and, if a surgeon, the theory and practice of surgery. Members might be tried by the so- ciety for malpractice, extortion, or disrespectful language towards the society, and it was made the duty of mem- bers to complain of such dereliction by their fellows. Patent medicines and their makers were discountenanced, and all irregular practitioners were reprobated, and from time to time called to account under the law. In 1823 the first meeting was held at Owego.

In 1858 the following strong resolutions were adopted :

" Resolved, That there is an orthodox faith in medicine as well as in theology, and while each allows great latitude of opinion, there is a point beyond which none can step without sacrificing the benefits which may flow from either.

" Resolved, That in our opinion Spiritualism is but the culminating point of a delusion which had its beginning in mesmerismn, its pro- gress through homeopathy ; therefore, those who have given their countenance to the latter are responsible for the effects of the former."

In 1868 the society took the Board of Supervisors to

task for appointing a homœopathic physician as doctor to the poor-house or county farm, and in so doing announced the base of their school to be " as broad as the experience of the ages," and that " its dome was crowned and illumi- nated by those truths which shall guide medical philoso- phers through all time." There was a lapse in the society's meetings from 1807 to 1811 ; another from 1840 to 1845 ; still a longer one from 1849 to 1857; and again from 1860 to 1868. Three different codes of by-laws have been adopted ; but the first organization has never been suffered to lapse entirely. The society is now in successful and healthy operation, with interesting and instructive sessions, where reports of important cases in medicine and surgery are made and discussed, with the mode of treatment pur- sued.

The presidents of the society have been as follows :

1806-10. Dr. Amos Park. 1845-46, Dr. Lucius II. Allen.

1811. Dr. Lewis Beers. 1845. Dr. Paige.
