erent and constant reader of the Bible. During all his long life he preserved habits of temperance, purity and regularity, and he enjoyed almost uniformly good health until within a few years of his death. Mr. Higinbotham married, in 1849, Eliza, daughter of Nicholas P. Randall, an eminent member of the Onondaga county bar. Of their union three daughters were born: Julia Randall, died February, 1895; Louise Adelaide and Eliza Rhobie.


Messinger, Isaac Newton, who died in Oneida, March 11, 1895, in the seventy-fifth year of his age, was for many years an honored member of the Madison county bar, and a valued citizen of Oneida. He was born in the town of Smithfield, this county, February 28, 1821, the only child of Gen. John M. Messinger, one of the earliest set- tlers of the town of Lenox. The General was a native of Barre, Mass., and in the year 1808 removed to the town of Smithfield. He was a man of importance in his time, being actively interested in military affairs. He was one of the early sheriffs of Madison county ; represented his district in the State Legislature, and occupied a prominent position in the county both politically and socially. I. Newton Messinger was a graduate of Hamilton College in the class of 1839, being a classmate of the late Judge Benjamin F. Chapman. He studied law, and in July, 1843, was admitted to the bar. He opened the first law office in Oneida shortly after his admission, taking as partner Hon. Ithamar C. Sloan, a brilliant practitioner of wide reputation. In September, 1863, he formed a partnership with James B. Jenkins, which was har- moniously and successfully maintained for a period of ten years, when Mr. Messinger retired from active practice (1873). Mr. Messinger was for some time chief of the village fire department, and was much esteemed for his bravery in the face of danger and disaster. He was also one of the early village presidents, and during the Civil war gave valuable aid to the Union cause by raising troops. Prior to the birth of the Republican party he was a Democrat. He was Oneida's fourth postmaster, his commission bearing the signature of President Buchanan; he was also one of the earliest ticket agents and operators at the New York Central station. The Oneida Union pays him the following tribute in an obituary: " Mr. Messinger was a man with broad and liberal views of life and character, and was seldom at fault in arriv- ing at a correct estimate of men and affairs. His was an essentially cultured and refined nature, and ' thus he bore without reproach, the grand old name of gentle- man.' With a heart full of sympathy for those distressed in mind, body or estate he had, at least, a helpful word to cheer or comfort, and he never pretended to judge the merits or demerits of others. .... He was merciful as he hoped to obtain mercy and exercised that beautiful charity which shall cover a multitude of sins. Not alone in the higher business and social circles, but among the humble and lowly he had most attached friends." After his lamented death a meeting of the bar of Oneida was held at which resolutions were adopted, and the deceased was eulogized in eloquent addresses by Messrs Shoecraft, Jenkins, and others. Mr Messinger was married, September 6, 1849, to Frances Eliza Fiske, daughter of William E. and Eliza (Alcott) Fiske, of Canastota. Four children were born to them: John Fiske, who died in September, 1854; Lizzie, first wife of A. L. Goodrich, who died in 1889; and Mrs. Theodore Coles, and Mrs. A. L. Goodrich, both of Oneida.
