accustomed labor, and the next three summers at the car- penter and joiner's trade. His school privileges had been very limited; and with a view to teaching, he attended Elder Tuthill's select school at Pike six weeks, which completed his school course, not exceeding, in all, twenty months. In the winter after he was sixteen, he commenced teaching, and taught five consecutive winters. In 1830 or 1831, he worked three months at printing for A. W. Young, in the office of the Warsaw Sentinel, and in his store for a time as clerk. After which, he was clerk for Joshua H. Darling, five years, and as a principal in the mercantile business two years. In 1838, he was elected on a temperance ticket a Justice of the Peace. He has from his youth been a thorough temperance man, and has, during his manhood, thus far, employed his voice and pen in support of total abstinence. He has been equally dil- igent in promoting the cause of education. He held the office of School Inspector and Town Superintendent eighteen years. In 1848, he established the Wyoming County Mirror. Though before and since that time a firm advocate of the distinctive principles of the Whig party, yet, feeling himself morally bound to support no man for President or Member of Con- gress who was not opposed to the extension of slavery, he refused to support the nomination of Gen. Taylor, made but three months after the establishing of the Mirror. In 1855, he sold out his paper, and removed to Kilbourn City, Wis., where he started the Wisconsin Mirror, literally " in the woods," there being but one dwelling within a mile from the printing-office.

Hlolly as a partner. The principles which have guided his course of life, he ascribes chiefly to maternal training. Mr. Holly was married, Oct. 5, 1836, to Lucretia E. Wakefield, who was born July 22, 1816. They have had ten children, as follows:
