Dr. Gaylor, who located before 1800 in the Partridge neighborhood in Edinburgh, was the earliest practitioner in that town. Dr. Edson was an early physician in the Washburn neighborhood.
In the town of Corinth Dr. Asa C. Barney is recorded as having been the first to engage in the practice of medicine. He followed that pro- fession for many years, and was very successful. His ride was wide and frequently very exhausting, and during his long career he seemed to take advantage of every opportunity to do good, especially among the poorer classes, without a thought of reward. He was a "good physician " in all that the word implies.
Among the earliest physicians in Northumberland were Dr. Collins, Dr. Reynolds and Dr. Jesse Billings. The latter became a man of wealth and influence. These physicians did not confine their practice to Northumberland, but frequently rode to the furthest limits of Mo- reau and Old Saratoga on their errands of mercy.
Dr. Youngs was the earliest doctor in Greenfield of whom anything is known. Dr. Asa C. Barney also practiced extensively in this town. Dr. Johnson, father of Dr. Ianthus G. Johnson of Greenfield and grand- father of Dr. Arthur W. Johnson of Mechanicville, was also a success-

ful practitioner in the early days. Three of his sons, G. Fordyce, L. B. W. and Ianthus G., were successful physicians. The latter is still practicing in town. He is a prominent Mason, and in 1863 and 1864 was a member of the board of supervisors of Saratoga county.
Probably the first physician in Wilton was Dr. Timothy Bloodworth. Dr. Vail, Dr. Henry Reynolds and Dr. John Floyd Williams were also in practice there very early.
Dr. McClary, who lived at Amity, was in practice in Clifton Park early in the century. He followed his profession for more than thirty years and was very widely known. Dr. Wade, though residing in Watervliet, Albany county, enjoyed an extensive practice in this town. He was a contemporary of Dr. McClary.
Dr. Wood, Dr. Henderson and Dr. Gregory were among the early practitioners in the town of Milton outside of Ballston Spa. Little is known of them.
Dr. Josiah Pulling, who lived near York's Corners, is still remem- bered by many of the older inhabitants as an early medical practitioner in the town of Providence.
Dr. Mitchell, Dr. Langdon Marvin, Dr. Alva Wood and Dr. Max- well, though residing in Northampton, Fulton county, practiced exten- sively in the northwestern part of Saratoga county in the early days of the century. Dr. Lemuel D. Sabin, of Edinburgh, was a contempo- rary of Dr. Mitchell.
We have endeavored thus far to record the names of some of the most prominent physicians who were either pioneers in the practice of their profession in Saratoga county, or who closely succeeded the first established practitioners. The remainder of this chapter will be de- voted largely to personal mention of some of the more conspicuous representatives of the profession in this county who are remembered by the living generations, as well as those who are engaged in practice at the present time.
The nestor of the profession in Saratoga county is Tabor B. Rey- nolds, M. D., who is still practicing in Saratoga Springs, in the seventy- cighth year of his age. Dr. Reynolds was born in Wilton, April S, 1821. After acquiring an academic education he began studying the science of medicine with his father, Dr. Henry Reynolds of Wilton, continuing under Drs. March and Armsby at Albany, and being grad- uated from the Albany Medical college in February, 1842. He began practice with his father and brother in Wilton. His father died in

1857 and his brother, Dr. John Henry Reynolds, in 1870, and in the latter year he removed to Saratoga Springs. His eminent skill as a physician, his high character and genial qualities have endeared him to all who know him. His practice has always been heavy and lucrative. For many years he was an honored member of the Saratoga Medical society, of which he was president in 1857. The year following he was elected a permanent member of the New York State Medical society, and in 1860 a member of the American Medical association. In 1872 he was chosen president of the Union Medical association of Washing- ton, Warren and Saratoga counties.
During the early part of his career Dr. Reynolds was frequently called to serve in responsible public offices. While a resident of Wil- ton he was chosen town superintendent of schools, serving in that capacity from 1847 to 1852. In 1856 and 1857, and again from 1863 to 1867, he represented Wilton in the board of supervisors. In 1857 he was elected to the Assembly by the Democrats and Americans, but after the war of the Rebellion he became a Republican. In 1867 he was elected sheriff of the county, serving three years. Since his re- tirement from public life in 1870 he had devoted himself to the practice of his profession, but in recent years has laid off much of the more onerous part of his labor in that calling.
Charles S. Grant, M. D., of Saratoga Springs, for years has occupied an enviable position among the medical fraternity of the United States.

Dr. Grant was born in Delaware county, N. Y., and after pursuing a classical course was graduated from the Albany Medical college. In 1867 he began practice in Saratoga Springs, where he has since remained. Dr. Grant has a national repu- tation for wonderful skill, and his success has been such as falls to the lot of few practitioners in the field of medicine.

After attending the Brooklyn City academy he entered the medi- cal department of the University of the City of New York, from which he graduated in 1859. He then studied for a while in Paris.
