APPLETON, Daniel :
Publisher; well known in military cir- cles as the Colonel of the famous Seventh. Regiment of the York
New State National Guard, and in business cir- cles from his prominent connection with the publishing trade; was born in 24, the City of New York, Feb. 1852; his father being john A. Appleton, his grandfather, Daniel Appleton, found- er of the publishing house of D. Appleton & Co .; the family has been one of long continuance in this country, and had its share in making American history for a hundred years before the Revolution; its military tendencies are shown in the fact that three of Colonel Appleton's great- grandfathers fought in the Revolutionary War, and two of his grandfathers held commissions in the War of 1812; prepara- tory to college course in Harvard he spent part of the years 1866 and 1867 studying in Germany; on his return he continued his studies preparatory to passing a col- lege examination; in 1867, when only fif- teen years of age, he entered the famous Boston Cadet Corps, with which he gained his first experience of military life; for the five succeeding summers he went into camp with that organization, gaining in this active duty some knowledge of the duties and privations of a military career; during this period he was occupied in study at Harvard, where, however, he was not able to graduate, the demands of the publishing. house requiring his pres- ence in 1871, and inducing him to give up college for business; since that date he has continued one of the most active members of the firm; his connection with the Cadet Corps had given him what he thought was enough of soldiering, but events quickly proved the contrary; the inciting cause which brought him back into the ranks was the Orange riot of July 12, 1871; "If respectable men cannot parade in peace under the law," he said, "it is time for Americans to do some- thing," and that he might be ready to do his part he enlisted on Oct. 31, 1871, as a private in F Company, Seventh Regi- ment, of which company he has remained a member ever since; on the 8th of April,

1873, he received his first grade of pro- motion, being made corporal, and on the 7th of November of the same year was raised to the grade of sergeant; he gained the promotion to first sergeant on March 9, 1875, and as such he paraded with the regiment in Boston on Bunker Hill Day; his next step of promotion came on May 23, 1876, when he was made second lieu- tenant; he accompanied the regiment to Philadelphia during the Centennial Ex- position; at a later date, during the rail- road riots of 1877, he helped garrison the old armory over Tomkin's Market until the exigency had passed; he was pro- moted captain on the 13th of Jan., 1879; under Captain Appleton Co. F grew rapid- ly in numbers and within a year had one hundred and three, the number allowed by law, with others anxious for admit- tance; since that time there has always been a waiting list; on July 19, 1889, Cap- tain Appleton was elected to succeed Em- mons Clark as colonel of the regiment, a position which he still retains; as officer in command of the Seventh, Colonel Ap- pleton has won general respect and es- teem, and during the strike of street-car operatives in Brooklyn his service, with that of his splendid regiment, deepened the feelings of respect and esteem with which he and his command are regarded by all law-abiding citizens; in the pub- lishing house of D. Appleton & Co. Col- onel Appleton has made himself practical- ly familiar with, and has been in charge, at intervals, of all branches, and is at present essentially at the head of its business department; he is unmarried, and is a member of a number of the leading clubs of New York, including the Century, the Union, and the New York Athletic, but does not consider himself a club-man, his duties with his company and regiment occupying the most of his leisure, to the exclusion of much devotion to club life.
