Our subject has always resided at the old home- stead, and he and his brother Edward operate the place in partnership. He takes an influential part in local affairs as a member of the Democratic party, and although he has never aspired to official honors he has served one year as supervisor and nine as school director. He is a man of intelligence and at


times varies the monotony of a farmer's life by travel, having spent two months, in 1897, in a trip through Ireland, Scotland and England, also visiting Paris.


MATTHEW J. MURPHY, one of the pro- prietors of the Forest City News, and a young jour- nalist of more than ordinary ability, was born in Carbondale, Penn., September 16, 1876, and is a son of Michael H. and Cecelia ( Brown) Murphy, na- tives of Ireland, who came with their respective par- ents to America when young and were married in Carbondale. The father died in 1890, at the age of fifty-two years; the mother is still living at the age of sixty, and continues to make her home in Car- bondale.


Our subject obtained a good practical education in the schools of his native city, and was graduated therefrom in the class of '93. In the following year he accepted a position with the Carbondale Evening Herald, serving as reporter and city editor until coming to Forest City in 1898 as one of the proprie- tors of the Forest City News. In politics he is in- dependent, while in religious faith he is identified with St. Agnes Church of Forest City.


L. B. MILLER. Among the representative citizens of Susquehanna county, few have more dis- tinctively won their positions in life or more cred- itably held them than the subject of this sketch. He is a farmer of the better type, successful, pro- gressive and a personal force in the community in which he lives. He has also been prominent in po- litical affairs, and is one of the enterprising and leading men of the county.


Mr. Miller was born January 22, 1846, in Exeter township, Luzerne Co., Penn., son of John C. and Louisa (Jackson) Miller, the father a native of Alleghany, N. Y. Our subject in his early childhood lived in Wyalusing township, Bradford Co., Penn., but at the age of six years came to Au- burn township, Susquehanna county, and received his education in the district schools and the Mont- rose High School, and for two terms attended a select school at Laceyville, Penn. He early devel- oped a talent for business and farming. At the age of twenty years, in partnership with his brother Ira, he purchased 106 acres of partly improved land. Five years later they added 106 acres to the tract and still later 122 acres. Dissolving partner- ship our subject had 276 acres in his possession, nearly all of which is now thoroughly improved. Upon this property he has erected a commodious residence and there engages in general farming and dairying, and in stock raising. He keeps from 20 to 35 cows, young short horn registered stock and about 100 sheep. Mr. Miller married Miss Susan S. Reynolds. Of the children born to them two died in infancy, one is now Mrs. N. P. Ayers, of Brook- lyn, N. Y., Leon N., Ella, Stark and Clyde.


In politics Mr. Miller is a Democrat. He has held nearly all the local offices, including those of

supervisor for six years; assessor four years; aud- itor nine years; school director six years, and in 1891, 1892 and 1893 he served as sheriff of Susque- hanna county. Socially Mr. Miller is a member of the Grange, and for several years 'he has been a member of the I. O. O. F.


CHESTER S. VAIL, senior member of the firm of Vail & Howell, of the New Milford Adver- tiser, is a successful business man and public-spirit- ed citizen of Susquehanna county, and his career affords an excellent illustration of American enter- prise.


Mr. Vail comes of good Colonial stock, and one of his direct ancestors, Gilbert Vail, was among the famous band of patriots who fought Col. Brant, "Monster Brant," as he was styled, with his three hundred Indian warriors and two hundred paint- ed Tories, at the battle of Minisink, in 1799, his name appearing on the monument at Gosh- en, N. Y., donated by the late Dr. Merritt H. Cash. The family has long been identified with Orange county, N. Y., where three brothers, Josiah, Sam- uel and Benjamin Vail, settled at an early day, and the name appears in connection with many papers and land titles in the old town of Goshen. Samuel Vail, from whom our subject's branch of the fam- ily is descended, married Hannah Petty, by whom he had five children : Gilbert, Michael, Phœbe, Ex- perience and Hannah. Gilbert Vail, whose gallant military service is mentioned above, married Hannah Arnot, and had the following named children- Julia, Samuel, Joseph, Sally, Phœbe, Esther, Han- nah and Polly.


Samuel Vail, the great-grandfather of our sub- ject, resided in the west division of the town of Goshen, where he carried on farming and also fol- lowed his trade, that of cloth dresser and fuller. He married Hannah Dunning, by whom he had the fol- lowing children: Deborah, Gilbert, Samuel, James, John, Anson, Phœbe, Jacob, Julia, William, Hannah, and Horace. Samuel Vail and his wife were bur- ied in the cemetery at Goshen.


Samuel Vail, second son of Samuel and Hannah Vail, was born September 23, 1787, and died April 5, 1855. His minority was spent in his native town, Goshen, for the most part in the family of Joseph Wood. Upon reaching his majority he learned the trade of wool-carding and fulling cloth, which he followed on his own account during the early part of his active business career, and in connection with farming it was his main life work. He was a resident successively of Minisink, and Warwick, in Orange county, N. Y., and Pochunck (now Glenwood) in the township of Vernon, Sussex Co., N. J., until about 1834 when he removed again into the town of War- wick, settling near Amity, where he resided until his death. He had a studious and thoughtful disposition, possessed of a good business education, and his ac- count book showed the work of a neat and thorough accountant. He was liberal with his means to any cause that had for its object the elevation and ame-


lioration of society. His love for home and family was intense and his eyes always kindled with pride when mention was made in his presence of his ten boys. Although never an open professor of religion, Samuel Vail was a God-fearing man, a thorough student of the Bible, and gave liberally to Chris- tian Churches and kindred objects. It was common- ly said of him: "If all men were as truthful and honest as 'Uncle Sammy Vail,' there would be lit- tle need of lawyers, judges, and jury men." He married Sally Cash, who was born April 5, 1794, and died November 7, 1845, was a daughter of Reuben and Millicent (Howell) Cash, of Minisink, and sis- ter' of the late Dr. Merritt H. Cash, well known as a prominent physician of Orange county, who died April 26, 1861, aged about sixty years. Children as follows were born to Samuel and Sally (Cash) Vail : Festus H., deceased, formerly a farmer near Great Bend; Reuben C., the father of our subject; Sam- 11el, a farmer at New Milford; Charles M., de- ceased ; James Lewis ; Dr. M. H. C., a graduate of the Castleton (Vt.) Medical College, who practiced medicine for about twenty-five years, served one term in the New Jersey Legislature, and is now liv- ing in South Orange, N. J .; George, a resident of Montrose Falls, N. Y .; Horton, of Middletown, N. Y., and Solomon Van Rensselaer, both deceased ; and John M., a farmer at Montrose Falls, New York.


Reuben C. Vail, the father of our subject, was born and reared in Orange county, New York, and was married there to Martha Ann Roberts, a native of the same section. In 1857 he came to Susque- hanna county, settling upon a farm in Gibson town- ship, and three years later removed to New Mil- ford, where for ten years he operated the "Union Ho- tel," now the "Jay House." His remaining days were spent in agricultural work near New Milford, and his death occurred March 20, 1872, when he was aged fifty-one, his remains being interred in New Milford cemetery. His estimable wife survives him, at the age of seventy, and resides with her children in New Milford.


Our subject was born August 11, 1856, in Or- ange county, N. Y., but his life has been spent mainly at New Milford. His inclination toward journalistic work manifested itself in boyhood, and in January, 1880, he formed a partnership with Lucius S. Brown, a practical printer, and started the Advertiser. At the end of two years he purchased his partner's in- terest, and for one year conducted the paper alone, but he then sold out to J. C. Howell and Joseph S. Hayden. In January, 1883, he went to Denver, Colo., where he remained three years, on his re- turn buying Mr. Hayden's interest and resuming his connection with the paper. He and his family are leading members of the Presbyterian Church of New Milford, and he is an active worker in the I. O. O. F. Politically he is an ardent Republican, and he wields a recognized influence in municipal affairs, having been secretary of the council for many years, while he has served as school director one term and on the town committee two terms.

COMMEMORATIVE BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD.


On March 1, 1883, Mr. Vail was married, in Denver, Colo., to Miss Eunice L. Palmer, and they have had three children : Martha C., Dewitt C., and Mary. Mrs. Vail is a native of Susquehanna coun- ty, and a daughter of Rev. James S. Palmer, a well- known Universalist minister, now living in retirement


at Mansfield, Penn. For one year he edited a news- paper at Montrose. The Palmer family were among the early settlers in Susquehanna county, and Mrs. Vail's father was born there, but her mother, whose maiden name was Hickcox, is a native of New Hampshire.
