Tracy, who had just commenced his distinguished career as a lawyer, and continued it in New York City, where he was admitted to the bar in 1857. When Gilbert C. Walk- er, afterward the Governor of Virginia, retired from the firm of Tracy, Warner & Walker, young Catlin was invited to take his place as junior partner of the firm, where he remained in active prac- tice until he entered the Union army in April, 1861. In the fall of 1860 he was elected to the position of mayor of Owego, being the youngest man up to that time who had held that office; upon the even- ing of the day in which President Lin- coln issued his proclamation for 75,000 troops he raised a company of volunteers of which he was unanimously elected captain; it is claimed that this was the first full company of volunteers enrolled in the North, which has never been seri- ously disputed; Catlin sprang from fight- ing stock; his grandfather, Nathaniel Catlin, enlisted at New Haven in the

General Catlin received three brevet commissions for bravery in the field, and afterwards a medal of honor for most distinguished gallantry in action; after the war and in 1865 he was elected district attorney for Tioga County, N. Y .; in 1870 he was placed upon the retired list as colonel of infantry, having theretofore been com- missioned as major-general by brevet; in 1871-2 he was assistant to the United States district attorney for the eastern district of New York; in 1877 he was elected district attorney for Kings County, N. Y., and re-elected in 1880; in 1885 he was nominated for mayor of Brooklyn, and was defeated by a defection in his own party in favor of the independent candidacy of General John B. Woodward. In 1893 he was nominated for Congress, but declined the nomination, fearing it would conflict with his office on the re- tired list of the regular army; in 1896 he was offered the nomination for lieutenant governor on the Democratic ticket; though General Catlin was prosecuting officer for ten years, he also defended many persons accused of crime, including those charged with murder in the first and second degrees; he was nine years counsel for the sheriff of Kings County; six times chosen grand marshal of the Grand Army of the Republic, and select- ed by the mayor and common council to command the Columbian parade, reviewed by President Cleveland.
