BIOGRAPHICAL.
The records and traditions of the Hutchinson family are that the founder of this old family is traced back to the tenth century and came from Cranborg, in the Danish island of Zealand, with Harold Harefoot, and he was then designated in Latin Uitonensis, meaning a native of Witton. The family settled in England at or near Middleham, in the bishopric of Durham, and they were free tenants of the Prince Bishops of that manor, particularly Cornforth and Humber Knowles, after the Conquest. Eleazer Hutchinson, the ancestor of this branch of the family, came to America in 1633 and afterward settled at Lebanon, now Andover, Conn. There were four of this name in direct descent. Eleazer the second married Ruth Long. They had seven children, Amaziah, the father of Holmes Hutchinson, being the third son, who was born Decem- ber 14, 1762. He married Elizabeth Mack, March 30, 1791. They had ten children, Holmes being the second son. His mother's grandmother was Sybella Browne, the only daughter of. Sir John Browne, Viscount Montague, of Londonderry, Ireland, who married John Mack, who with his wife and William, his son, came from the town of Ar- magh to America in 1732 and settled at Londonderry, N. H. Tradition records that Isabella Browne, the cousin of Sybella, was married to the grandfather of Gov. George Clinton, of New York.
W JILLIAMS, JAMES WATSON, was the son of Nathan Williams, for many years circuit judge, and was born in Utica, May 18, 1810. In his youth he held the first positions in the schools and in the College where he was educated. He studied law with his father and was at first a clerk in the court of the vice- chancellor. Then in association for some years with David Wager, his brother-in-law, and still longer alone, he was more or lass occupied with the duties of his profession. It was an occupation, however, in which he found little that was congenial, so that his time and attention were largely engrossed with other employments. About 1835 he be- came editor of the Weekly Observer and was connected with it over two years, giving brilliant proof of strength as a logician, high culture, and patience in study and research. In all matters of life and business Mr. Williams was remarkable for the neatness and the accuracy of his transactions. His clear-headed insight, his conscientious fidelity, his fine penmanship, and the nice care with which everything was executed that fell to his lot to do were so universally felt that demands upon him were frequently made to per- form public and official duty which no one else could so well do. In 1847 he was made mayor of the city and in 1848 was placed in nomination for Congress. He was a miost serviceable commissioner of the public schools and as such a judicious guardian of the interests of the Public Library, and an active trustee of the Female Academy ; one of the original Board of Trustees of the Utica Cemetery Association on whose unerring taste his associates largely relied; president of the Board of the Utica Water Works Company, and secretary as well as manager of the Managing Board of the State Hospital for the Insane.
He was in fact noted for his taste and skill in a wide range of accomplishments. He was well read in English literature and had a refined appreciation of all that related to the arts. He spoke and wrote with ease and witli a choiceness of phraseology which

showed that he had given days and nights to the best of models. He was well fitted to deliver addresses on public occasions on a great variety of topics, and was ever ready to pay a public tribute to those of his acquaintance who passed to their final rest before him. At the time of his own death he was busied in preparing a discourse to be shortly spoken before the Phi Beta Kappa of Hamilton College.
Mr. Williams had the abilities which qualified him for eminence and usefulness in public relations. Yet his critical taste and habits of minute and careful elaboration held him back in some degree from reaching that prominence in the public mind to which by his talents he was entitled. His very fastidiousness and nicety were apt to make him dissatisfied with his own productions, and prevent his coming forward as freqently and as boldly as he should have done in justice to himself. Added to this his scholarly habits and inclinations led him to follow, in preference, the more peaceful and retired walks of private life. All those who knew him, however, from his earliest youth felt that if he had seen fit to throw himself into the struggle for public distinction he had the qualities and attainments that would have enabled him to reach any point at which his ambition might have aimed.
Beyond respect inspired by his abilities Mr Williams was also held in high regard by the community for his unbending integrity. From earliest youth his career was marked by the blamelessness of his character, and in all his dealings since he was up- right, honorable, and courteous. In his disposition he was mild, amiable, and genial, while his intercourse with his fellowmen was marked with kindly charity and benevo- lent interest. His religious convictions were strong and clear, his devotion to the church of his fathers constant and invaluable. He was a considerate husband and a tender father. His wife was Helen, daughter of Alfred Munson, who together with two daughters is still living. Another daughter died in childhood.
R OBERTS, ELLIS H., was the son of Watkins Roberts, and was born in Utica, September 30, 1827. His preliminary education he obtained in the Whitestown Seminary, and thence he went to Yale College, where he was graduated in 1850, taking the second honor. During his college vacations he spent his time in the printing office of his brother, and by his diligence in type-setting he became a practical printer. After graduation he was for a short time principal of the academy, and then joined Messrs. Sherman, Colston & Roberts in the conduct of the Utica Morning Herald, which had been recently started by them. Of this paper he soon became sole editor and pro- prietor, and continued to conduct it with the help of able assistants down to October, 1890, when it passed into the hands of a company. Mr. Roberts was a terse and forci- ble writer, firm and consistent in support of the principles of the Republican party, yet too independent to be led into the advocacy of men or measures which his judgment did not approve. He gave to the paper a character for enterprise, intelligence, and uprightness which secured it a wide circulation in Central and Northern New York and an enviable repute the whole country over. He left it to become assistant treasu- rer of the United States at New York city, where he now resides.
Mr. Roberts sat as a member of the New York Assembly in 1867, and was afterward
93
BIOGRAPHICAL.
a representative of his district in the Forty-second and Forty-third terms of the United States Congress, where he served in the Committee of Ways and Means. At the close of these official duties he made an extensive tour in Europe, returning to the manage- ment of the Herald. His interest in the civic, educational, and other affairs of Utica that concerned its general welfare were shown not only by the support he gave them in his paper, but his concession to the frequent demands made upon him for addresses on public occasions. He was and is still a trustee of Hamilton College, from which he received the degree of LL.D., and of the Utica Female Academy. The same honor was likewise conferred on him by Yale College. He succeeded Governor Seymour as presi- dent of the Oneida Historical Society, and was president of the Fort Schuyler Club, as well as of the Beehive Bank, so-called. He was author of a history of New York, pub- lished as one of the Commonwealth series, and of a work on Government Revenue, which was made up of six lectures he delivered before the students and faculty of Cornell University.
C OMSTOCK; MILES CHESTER, was born in Hartwick, Otsego County, N. Y., May 7, 1823, and was the oldest of ten children. Nine years later his father, Sheldon Comstock, a respected, well-to-do farmer, moved with his family to Westford, in the same county, and here the boy received such an education as the district school of the day afforded. During the summer months life in the country was all work for the industrious youth, and the winter found him busy in school, especially in the study of mathematics, of which he was naturally fond. At the age of seventeen, having lost his mother to whom he was devotedly attached, he decided to leave the farm and to accept a position offered him in a grocery store in Utica, on Genesee street, just below Fayette. On arriving in Utica he found himself with a capital of one shilling, a new suit of clothes, willing hands and a determination to succeed. Before the expiration of the year, however, the firm by whom he was employed failed and he returned to West- ford, rich in a proportion of his year's salary, which was to have been eighty dollars. After another winter in school he came back to Utica and entered the store of Elijah G. Peckham, who sold out a little later to T. K. Butler. In Mr. Butler's employment Mr. Comstock, by industry, good management and economy, laid the foundation for a successful business career. After five years' clerkship he was admitted to partnership, the firm becoming T. K. Butler & Co. In 1855 Mr. Comstock organized the firm of Dickinson, Comstock & Co., which was changed on the death of Mr. Dickinson to Comstock Bros. Since this time he has extended his business interests in various ways, giving employment to a large number of workingmen. The manufacturing firm of Comstock Bros. & Co. began in 1868, and some years later Mr. Comstock purchased the factories of the Segar Manufacturing Co., of Utica, and Hard Bros. & Co., of Oneida, and incorporated them as the Comstock Manufacturing Co. From time to time he has invested in city property, always with the idea of its ultimate improvement, and the several handsome edifices which he has built add materially to the city of his residence.
In politics Mr. Comstock belongs to the party which Jefferson established and in 1855 was nominated by the Democrats for city treasurer and was elected by 100 ma-
94

jority ; the nominee for mayor on the Whig ticket that year receiving a majority of 600. In the spring of 1871 he was elected mayor of the city and four years later was appointed fire and police commissioner. Many of our citizens remember the terror caused in the community about this time by a series of well-planned burglaries. No efforts on the part of the proper authorities seemed to avail in discovering the perpe- trators. Mr. Comstock with all the enthusiasm of his nature threw himself into the work of detection, and by almost single-handed efforts succeeded in arresting and con- ยท victing several desperate criminals. As an office holder he faithfully fulfilled the trust reposed in him, being heartily interested in the welfare of the people and never permit- ting private interests to interfere with the higher duties of citizenship. In the old days of the volunteer fire department, when for a season fires were marvelously frequent and buckets took the place of hose, he was an indefatigable worker and member of In- dependent Engine and Hose Company No. 3.
Many positions of trust and honor have been held by Mr. Comstock For five years he devoted much time and attention to the interests of the Utica State Hospital, having been appointed manager in 1885. He took a prominent part in the building of the Utica and Susquehanna Valley Railroad, and its subsequent leasing to the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western. As a member of the Mechanics' Association, the Mendels- sohn Club, the old Oneita and present Fort Schuyler Clubs, and charter member and treasurer of Faxton Lodge, he has shown a lively interest in the social and fraternal in- tercourse of his fellowmen. For nearly a quarter of a century he has been a director in the First National Bank, faithfully aiding with his unobtrusive counsel.
Before leaving the home of his boyhood, Miles C. Comstock was baptized and con- firmed by Bishop Onderdonk of the Protestant Episcopal Church. Upon arriving at Utica he at once allied himself with Trinity Church, and has ever since been a devoted member of this parish. Since 1844 he has been connected with its Sunday-school, either as teacher or superintendent, having held the latter office twenty-five years. In 1856 he was elected vestryman of the church, in 1886 warden, and for several years has served on the finance committee of the diocese. To the charitable and educational institutions of the city he has been a cheerful giver. A trustee of the House of the Good Shepherd, and for some time president, he has devoted much time and attention to its welfare.
No one has done more to advance the interests of the city of his adoption than Mr. Comstock. Whatever he undertakes he loves to push to success. In all public enter- prises looking to the interests of the community he has stood with the foremost. In mercantile circles he is distinguished for honesty, liberal dealings, executive talents of no mean order and a kindly consideration towards others. His private life is without blemish, and his modest unpretension, refinement of feeling and generosity of heart, mark the true gentleman.
Mr. Comstock has been twice married. His first wife was Miss Emily M. Roseboom, of Otsego County, and their children are Mrs. Frederick R. Peckham and Arthur Com- stock. His second wife was Mrs. Helen Mar North, of Middlefield, N. Y.
