Among the old physicians whose names are not preserved in the records of the society may be named Dr. Samuel Tinkham, who loeated before 1793 in Tioga, near Owego village. He died in 1804. Dr. Joseph Waldo was also a resident physician of Newark before 1800. He died 1840; was the father of Dr. J. Talcott Waldo.

Dr. E. B. PHELPS was born in Hebron, Tolland Co., Conn. Ile was a medieal student with Drs. John S. Peters and Samuel Simons, of the same place, and graduated at New Haven Medical College, Conn., in the season of 1823-24; began the practice of medicine with Dr. Cooley, of Manchester, Hartford Co., Conn., the following May, and in September, 1824, eame to Owego, Tioga Co., N. Y., and entered into the practice of medicine. Dr. Joel S. Paige was the only practitioner here at that

time. Dr. Phelps informs us that his rides in those early days were tedious and extensive, mostly on horseback, through dense forests, over rough and hilly roads. Such was the demand for his services that much of his sleep was obtained on horseback, and as the country was sparsely populated, in sickly times he had frequently to perform the part of nurse as well. The praetiee of medicine in those days was less a sineeure than now.

The doctor has pursued the ardnous duties of his profes- sion now fifty-four years ; has attained an honorable posi- tion both as a citizen and a physician. He has always taken an active part in behalf of the welfare of his profession ; was one of the earliest members of the medical society ; and, although somewhat backward in expressing an opinion, is often ealled to counsel in difficult eases. ITis energies seem but little abated, and, although he has acquired a eompe- tency, is still pursuing his profession with the zeal of his first love, and is in a good state of preservation. The medi- eal society frequently meets in one of his parlors, where we had the pleasure of meeting him, and realizing the high esteem with which his professional brethren regard him.

Dr. LUCIUS H. ALLEN was born in Lunenberg, now Athens, Green Co., N. Y. (on the Hudson), Jan. 31, 1796. He studied medieine under Dr. Thomas Ponfret, of Con- nectieut, who was afterwards Professor of Surgery in the Medical School of New Haven ; returning to New York as a student of Dr. Delos White, Professor of Anatomy in the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Fairfield, IIerkimer Co., N. Y. He graduated at Brown University, Provi- denee, R. I., in 1820, when he removed to Buffalo, remain- ing three years ; here he espoused, and was the first to ad- voeate, the eause of temperanee. From Buffalo he moved to Cherry Valley, remaining eight years, when, his health failing, he removed to Berkshire, in order to try farming in connection with physie, which he soon abandoned. In the fall of 1830, in company with his wife, he made a tour to Mauch Chunk, Pa., thenee down the valley to Norristown. The first railroad he ever saw was at Maueh Chunk, leading away to the coal mines on the hills some eight miles dis- tant. The trains brought eoal and passengers back by gravi- tution,-a great curiosity at that time. The doetor made the tour in his own eonveyanee. Returning to Cherry Valley, he located at Berkshire ; here he found a religious revival in progress, conducted by one Finney. Following this religious awakening was a sort of temperanee movement, but not on the total abstinence basis; seeing which, Dr. Allen took the platform and boldly advocated total absti- nenee as the only safety from the ravages of King Alcohol. The cause triumphed.

In 1832 he located at Owego, where he ever after re- mained. Soon after arriving here he reecived an address on the total abstinenee question written by old Dr. Kitt- ridge, of New Hampshire, and, seeking a favorable oppor- tunity, he requested the pastor of the Presbyterian Church to read the address after his sermon, and was much pleased as well as surprised to hear the minister preach on temper- ance and then read the address. This was the beginning of greater things; temperance was a success.

During the same year " the question of slavery" was agitated, and Dr. Allen espoused the anti-slavery doetrine

with great zeal. About this time the Boston Abolition or Colonization movement was fighting its way; this was heartily seconded by the doctor. So great was the conflict that frequent alienation between near and dear friends was the result. Politically, the doctor found himself on the side of the Union during the war of the Rebellion. Since 1862 he has been United States Examining Surgeon for Pensions, a difficult position to fill well, frequently requiring the most subtle discernment to decide between the eupidity and necessity of the applicant. Religiously, the doctor is a Presbyterian (true blue), and for years has been an actiing elder in that church. Financially, the doctor has prospered also, although the bulk of his property has been acquired in other avenues than medicine; he still clings to his pro- fession, however, and being in a good state of preservation is much sought after in consultation.

DR. H. N. EASTMAN was born in Fairfield, Herkimer Co., N. Y., Aug. 17, 1810. Passing through the Fairfield Academy, he found his way into the school-room as a teacher at the early age of seventeen, and pursued this avoeation for ten years, during which time he also studied medicine with the venerable G. W. Bradford, M.D., still living at the ad- vanced age of eighty-five years, and subsequently attending a course of lectures at Fairfield Medical College ; his means being limited, he presented himself before the board of censors for examination, which was deemed satisfactory, and a diploma awarded him, when he at once entered upon the practice of medicine in the village of Candor, Tioga Co., N. Y., where he remained two years, and removed to Owego, twenty-two years ago. Soon after locating here he received the degree of Doctor of Medicine from Castleton Medical College, Vermont. In the year 1859 he received the appointment of Professor of Materia Medica and Theory and Practice of Medicine in Geneva Medical College, which position he held during fifteen years, closing his lectures at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of the University of Syracuse, N. Y., into which the Medical College of Geneva had been merged, or a portion of its faculty, two years after his accepting the chair named above; and he removed to the village of Geneva to pursue the practice of medicine, which he continued to do for cleven years in con- nection with his college duties. While there he received the appointment of Lecturer on Materia Medica and Hy- gicne at the University of Buffalo, N. Y. After three courses of lectures delivered at that place, he relinquished the chair and removed to Iowa to engage in the drug busi- ness with his youngest son. Not liking this business or the separation from so many of his carlier friends, he returned to New York, and settled in Owego in the autumn of 1874, and was not long in gathering a remunerative practice. While in Geneva he represented the Ontario County Med- ical Society, the State Medical Society, has been a member of the American Medical Society from its inception, and is an active member of the Tioga County Medical Society .. Though retired from the professor's chair he is nevertheless deservedly prominent in his profession.

HOMEOPATHY.

DR. EZEKIEL LOVEJOY was the first physician to in- troduce the system of practice after the Hahnemannic

school of materia medica into Tioga County. He was a graduate of Union College, and a student of Dr. Valentine Mott, and changed his practice in Owego in 1847-48. He was a skillful physician, and died in 1871. His successors in the homeopathic school have been as follows :

DR. E. B. SPRAGUE, Owego, 1853; died 1874.

DR. HAMLIN CHAMPLIN, Owego, 1854; removed.

DR. T. S. ARMSTRONG, Owego, 1861, a student of Dr. Spencer, of Geneva College, and a graduate of that insti- tution, and yet in successful and extensive practice.

DR. A. R. VAIL, Owego, 1863 ; removed 1868.

DR. J. T. GREENLEAF, Owego, 1868; was a student of Dr. Lovejoy, and a graduate of the New York Homoeopathic College. He is yet in practice.

DR. R. B. JENKS, a student of Dr. Armstrong, and a graduate of New York Homoeopathic College ; was a part- ner of Dr. Armstrong in 1869, and is now in practice in Elmira.

DR. WALSH, Owego, 1869-70 ; now in Michigan.

DR. HUNTER, Candor, DR. HAWLEY, Waverly, and DR. CADMUS, now in Waverly.

The Homoeopathic Medical Society of Tioga was organ- ized July 20, 1870, by Drs. Lovejoy, Armstrong, Hawley, Walsh, Hunter, and Greenleaf. The officers for the first ycar were Dr. Lovejoy, President; Dr. Hawley, Vice-Presi- dent ; Dr. Greenleaf, Treasurer and Secretary ; Drs. Arm- strong, Walsh, and Hunter, Censors. This society was not of long duration, owing to the scarcity of members, and it was in 1875 merged in a district society, comprising the counties of Tioga, Tompkins, Cortland, and Broome, of which Dr. Jones, of Groton, Tompkins Co., is President, and Dr. Bessemer, of the same county, is Secretary. This society was organized Sept. 23, 1874, with Dr. Morgan, of Ithaca, President ; E. V. Nash, of Cortland, Vice-Presi- dent; and J. T. Greenleaf, of Owego, Treasurer and Sec- retary.

ECLECTICISM.

The Twenty-Sixth Senatorial District Eclectic Medical Society was organized Sept. 12, 1865, by Dr. J. Frank, of Owego; J. B. White, of Spencer; F. D. Gridley, Whit- ney's Point; J. Wilson, Owego; J. P. Mathews, Nichols ; P. A. Johnson, Waverly ; White, of Ithaca ; Robinson, of McLean ; and Titus, of Union. The first officers were Dr. J. Wilson, Owego, President; W. W. Wheaton, Bingham- ton, Vice-President ; P. A. Johnson, Recording Secretary ; F. D. Gridley, Corresponding Secretary ; J. Frank, Treas- urer.

THE CLERGY. .

The personal history of the clergy, as a general thing, so far as it is touched upon, will be found in the history of the various churches in the town and village histories ; but there are a few of the pioncer preachers and mission- aries who made their homes among the early settlers, and traversed the trackless woods from clearing to clearing to proclaim the tidings of salvation, to whose memory we give space here.

Among the first ones was REV. SETH WILLISTON,* a

missionary sent out from Connecticut by the Congregational Churches, and whose labors began as early as 1793 in the valleys of the Susquehanna and Chenango. He was a man of remarkable energy and ability, and in 1846, when eighty years of age, supplied the First Presbyterian Church of Owego, at which time he retained his physical and mental vigor sufficiently to fulfill all the demands of a large con- gregation in the principal centre of the county. He had an extensive acquaintance with the people of Broome, Tioga, and Chenango Counties and elsewhere in this State and Connecticut, and was regarded as one of the most able and faithful clergymen of his day. He was held in high estimation as a scholar and profound theologian. A work by him-" The Harmony of Divine Truth"-evinees a minute and critical knowledge of the sacred writings, and entitles him to hold rank with the best theological writers of his day. He was the founder of the early Congrega- tional Churches in the county.

REV. DAVID JAYNE was the pioneer Baptist, and was the founder of the Baptist Churches in all of this section of country, both in New York and Pennsylvania. He was an able man and a faithful pastor.

REV. HORACE AGARD was the pioneer Methodist cir- cuit-rider, and was in his day almost as widely known as Peter Cartwright, but for solid worth rather than for eccentricity. His character as a man and a minister was dignified and exalted in the church, in which he was a prominent leader for many years. He died in Nichols, at an advanced age.

REVS. AARON PUTNAM and CHAS. WHITE, D D., were prominent clergymen of the Presbyterian Church of Owego, where they are more fully mentioned.

REV. MARCUS FORD, of the same church, in Newark Valley, was remarkable for his intellectual acquirements, gained largely while physically incapacitated by disease, his intellect the while remaining intact and vigorous.

CHAPTER XXII.

THE PRESS OF THE PAST AND THE PRESENT -AUTHORS AND BOOKS.

The American Constellation-American Farmer-Owego Gazette- Owego Advertiser-The Owego Times-The Tioga County Record -The Workingman-The Waverly Advocate -- Waverly Free Press -The Candor Independent-The Tioga County Herald, etc.

THE AMERICAN CONSTELLATION

was the first newspaper published in the southern tier counties of New York, and made its first appearance in the galaxy of the literary world Nov. 23, 1800. Mr. Le Roy W. Kingman, who furnished the material for the principal part of this chapter, has in his possession a copy of the Constellation, which is the forty-third number of the paper issued, and is dated Sept. 12, 1801. It was published every Saturday, by Daniel Cruger, Jr., and was dated " Union, Tioga Co .. N. Y." By a careful examina-

tion of this solitary paper and the postal records at Wash- ington, it is definitely ascertained that this "Union" at which the Constellation was dated was not the " Union" of to-day, but the village of Chenango, about one mile above the present city of Binghamton. It was dated " Union" because for many years that was the only post-office in this region.

The motto of the Constellation was " Free but not Lieen- tious." It was a four-column quarto, and the sheet meas- ured 172 inches by 213 inches. Lists of advertised letters in the post-offices at Bath, Owego, Newtown (Elmira), and Athens, Pa., appear in this old copy, indicating that the paper was the only one in the country. The subscription price was $2 per annum, and the publisher announced that " to accommodate those subscribers who cannot pay in cash, merchantable winter wheat will be received in payment." From indisputable evidence-though circumstantial-it is pretty clearly established that the Constellation was removed from Uniou by Mr. Cruger to Owego, and there continued under the name of the

AMERICAN FARMER,

about August, 1803. Mr. Cruger was succeeded in the publication of the paper by Stephen Mack, who remained as publisher until 1814. He added to the name of the paper another cognomen, the same being known as the American Farmer and Owego Advertiser. In 1806. Stephen B. Leonard began his apprenticeship as a printer in the office of the Farmer at the age of fourteen years. In the winter of 1813 he purchased a half-interest in the establishment of Judge Mack, Horace Mack, a son of the latter, being taken in as an apprentice to offset the services of Mr. Leonard. On the death of Judge Mack, Mr. Leonard changed the name of the paper to the

OWEGO GAZETTE,

the new name appearing for the first time on the issue of June 15, 1814. The Gazette as first published was a folio, four columns to the page, the sheet being 22 inches long ' by 19 inches wide. On June 15, 1815, Ebenezer Mack, another son of Judge Mack, formed a partnership with Leouard in the publication of the Gazette. Mr. Mack had been foreman in the Columbian office, in New York City. The connection continued one year, at the end of which Leonard purchased his partner's interest. John Rose, foreman, and Daniel H. Cole, an apprentice, were the work- ing force on the Gazette, assisted occasionally by Mr. Leonard at the case. At that time the ink was mixed ou a board and distributed upon the type by means of halls of wool covered with buckskin. , The Gazette was first deliv- ered to subscribers by Mr. Leonard himself, who at the same time established mail-routes and solicited subscriptions. Ile was postmaster of Owego at the time (1816-20), and subsequently secured contracts for mail service by post- riders, as Judge Mack also did while publishing the Farmer. Leonard's routes extended from Owego to Bing- hamton, Norwich, Penn Yan, Bath, and other points. The government paid for the delivery of the mails, and the post-riders delivered the papers at the same time.

In October, 1827, Mr. Jonas B. Shurtleff became asso-

104

HISTORY OF TIOGA, CHEMUNG, TOMPKINS,

ciated with Mr. Lconard in the Gazette, which connection continued until Oet. 13, 1829, and was then dissolved. In 1831 a Mr. Cook was, for a brief period, associated in the publication of the Gazette, and was succeeded from 1833 to the summer of 1835 by John J. C. Cantine, a graduate of the Albany Argus office. Mr. Leonard was in this year (1835) a member of Congress, and Mr. Cantine had the management of the office, and the same not proving satis- factory to the senior partner the connection was dissolved, and for a time the Gazette was published by Shurtleff & Bull, the former succeeding to the exclusive ownership in July, 1836. In the winter of 1837, Dr. John Frank (now of Owego) became associated with Shurtleff for four months,-the paper then having 400 subscribers, a much smaller list than Shurtleff represented it to be, henec the dissolution in May, 1838.

On the night of Feb. 13, 1839, the store of John Bas- sett, in which the Gazette office was located, was destroyed by fire, and with it the Gazette establishment entire. John Bassett was the incendiary, and on the discovery of that fact he committed suicide, a few days afterwards. Mr. Shurtleff engaged in book publishing after the destruction of the Gazette, but unsuccessfully.

Three days succeeding the fire, Edward P. Marble (then engaged in the publication of the Binghamton Courier) made arrangements for the revival of the Gazette and its continuance, and opened his office in the second story of Rollin Block, a wooden building occupying the ground now occupied by the brick block of Storrs & Chatfield and Bissell Woodford. The name was changed to the Owego and Tioga County Gazette, but on Nov. 7, 1839, the old name was restored. On Dec. 24, 1841, the paper passed into the hands of Charles C. Thomas, and Alanson Manger became the editor, and the office was removed to the third story of a brick building occupying the present site of the Tioga County National Bank. June 15, 1842, Mr. Thomas was succeeded in the proprietorship of the Gazette by Thomas Woods, a printer in the office, and Mr. Munger surrendered " the editorial tripod to Gideon O. Chase, who was for many years a prominent politician of the county, and is now, and has been since 1863, station-agent of the Erie Railway at Smithboro'. The new management continued till November 25 following only, when the establishment was surrendered to a Mr. Medbury, of New Berlin, N. Y., father-in-law of Edward P. Marble, who held a mortgage lien on the office and material.

In January, 1843, Hiram A. Becbe, publisher of the Bradford Democrat, at Towanda, Pa., came to Owego at the solicitation of Judge Strong, and purchased the Gazette of Mr. Woods, still subject to the Medbury mortgage, and the office was again removed to the northeast corner of Front and Lake Streets (up-stairs).

At this time the " Hunker" and " Barnburner" division of the Democratic party occurred in the county, over what was known as the "Poor-House" controversy, on a claim of Waterbury Smith, one of the superintendents of the poor, Mr. Smith being sustained by the Gazette and the regular Democratic organization. The controversy led to a curious state of affairs so far as newspapers were concerned. The anti-Poor-House faction ("Barnburners"), led by Judge

Charles T. Avery, Colonel Henry McCormick, Gidcon O. Chase, and others, induced Mr. Woods to foreclose the chattel-mortgage in order to get control of the Gazette; but Mr. Beebe, being apprised of the proceedings, printed his outside sheets, containing legal advertisements, for some weeks in advance, and arranged for printing the inside of the paper at the office of the Advertiser, the Whig organ in the village. When Woods foreclosed his mortgage, G. O. Chase resumed editorial control of the paper, and for some time there were two Owego Gazettes issued, one being known as " Woods' Gazette," and the other as the "Poor- House Gazettc."

The " Hunkers" purchased the Towanda Democrat establishment, and Judge Strong and Mr. Beebe brought the press and material to Owego in a two-horse wagon early in 1843, and established an office on the bank of the Sus- quehanna, nearly opposite the present Exchange Hotel. The Democracy were defeated in the fall elections, the Whigs having aided in the circulation of Woods' paper for the purpose of dividing the Democratic party.

Woods, on seizing the Gazette, continued the publication of the legal advertisements, as did also Mr. Beebe, and both claimed payment therefor; but Judge Avery, then Master in Chancery, refused to allow the latter's bill, and he brought suit to recover the same. The courts ruled in his favor, deciding the good-will of an establishment could not be mortgaged, and Mr. Woods obtained by his fore- closure the presses and material only, and not the business of the office. The old office was formally surrendered to Mr. Medbury, who removed to New Berlin, Chenango Co., where the presses and material were used by Edward P. Marble in a job-office. Mr. Beebe sold the Gazette in 1845, on account of the division in the Democratic party, and his pecuniary inability to continue its publication against a competing publication proposed to be issued thereby. The purchaser was Thomas Pearsall, of Nichols, who took possession July 25, and continued its publication about cight months, when, desiring the position of delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1846, he called the County Convention at an unusually early day, and was de- feated, John J. Taylor being nominated. Pearsall then sold his interest to Stephen B. Leonard, who held it temporarily until March 27, 1846, when he sold it to D. Wallis & Son. Mr. Wallis was county clerk of Tioga County from 1834 to 1843, and was a prominent Democratic politician. He died in Tioga, Sept. 2, 1874, aged eighty-three years. Mr. Beebe went to Westfield, Mass., in 1845, after disposing of the Gazette, and became the editor of the Standard. In 1847, on the request of some thirty or more leading nien of the Democratic party, he returned to Owego and re-assumed control of the Gazette, re-entering into possession in August of that year. The paper was enlarged, August 31, from five to six columns, the sheet being 22 inches long by 32 wide.

In 1848, Mr. Beebe issued a few numbers of the Daily Gazette, the telegraph having just reached the village, and the news of the French revolution being exciting and eagerly sought for. On the suppression of the insurrection the demand for a daily paper ceased, and its publication was discontinued.
