He is however one of the best in- formed citizens of the commonwealth. He was for many years agent for the Bingham estate, and for several years past has been one of the trustees, with his office at Wellsboro, and the large amount of business which he had to transact in the several courts of northern Penn- sylvania in the matter of titles, conveyances, etc., led to his admission to the bar of Tioga county " ex gratia " in the year 1880.

Mr. Stone is a gentleman of good legal talent, and an honor to the county that gave him birth.

township. He commenced reading law July 7th 1851 with A. J. Monroe in the borough of Knoxville. Butler B. Strang was a student in the same office at that time. Mr. Streeter was admitted to practice at the bars of Tioga and Potter counties in December 1854, and continued in practice until quite recently, when, his health failing, he gave up business. He never meddled with political affairs to any great extent, and never held any official position. His first case in court after his admission was in 1855, when he and Butler B. Strang defended William Champlin, a resident of Westfield, charged with the crime of arson in burning two hay stacks. Champlin was twice tried. At the first trial the jury disagreed, and at the second the defendant was acquitted. Singular to relate, after an active service of 27 years, Mr. Streeter's last case was that of the same man charged with the killing of his son. He was indicted for murder. The prose- cution concluded he could not be convicted, and he was discharged without trial. Mr. Streeter was a gentleman of industrious habits, a good counsellor and a fair advo- cate. Upon his death appropriate action was taken by the members of the bar of Tioga county.


Republican State convention at Lancaster in 1875 for State treasurer, when he did not desire the office or nomination. During his public life of nearly twenty years few men in the commonwealth exerted a greater influence than Butler B. Strang. Possessing a clear mind, and a knowledge of parliamentary usages, and being an able and effective debater, he was the acknowledged Republi- can leader of the House and Senate of Pennsylvania. Schooled in the adversities of pioneer life he knew the wants of his constituents and the State at large. No man could express his views in a more lucid manner than Mr. Strang. We believe he received the unanimous vote of the district for the Senate in 1870, thus showing his popu- larity at home. He was a strong and earnest advocate of the construction of the Jersey Shore, Pine Creek and Buffalo Railroad, and was largely instrumental in the passage of the act for its construction which was vetoed by Governor Geary. He gave dignity, honor and credit to the county of Tioga in the legislative halls, and in other circles wherever he moved.


He was for many years an active member of the Tioga county bar, and was counsel in many important suits; but for the last ten years, owing to ill health, he has rarely appeared at the bar. It is no discourtesy to other distinguished gentleman, living or dead, who have represented Tioga county in the Legislature of the State to say that none have made a brighter or better record than he. He has accumulated a competence and lives in a beautiful and convenient cottage in Westfield bor- ough, on the banks of the Cowanesque, near the spot where 42 years ago, when a lad of 12 years, he com- menced the great battle of life. He has well earned the quiet he now enjoys.


Butler B. Strang was born in Greenwood, Steuben county, N. Y., March 16th 1829. He is the son of a Methodist minister who was stationed at Lawrenceville in 1838, and who, his health failing, removed in 1840 to Westfield, where our subject has since resided. Mr. Strang read law with A. J. Monroe of Knoxville, and was admitted to the several courts of the district in 1852 and subsequently to the supreme court. In 1856 he was elected district attorney, and served three years with honor and credit. In 1860 he was elected a mem- ber of the House of Representatives of Pennsylvania, and was re-elected six years successively, making seven Lauren H. Tuttle was born in Tioga, this county, March 29th 1848, and educated in the borough schools of his native village and at Starkey Seminary, Yates county, N. Y., at which latter institution he graduated with honor. He studied with Hon. F. E. Smith and Hon. Charles H. Tioga county bar in the year 1874, when he opened an office in Tioga borough. He was elected justice of the peace in 1877, and re-elected in 1882. He is in active practice and resides at Tioga. years in that body. He was chairman of the judiciary general committee two sessions and of ways and means one session, and was speaker of the House in 1870. He was elected to the Senate in the fall of 1870 and served two terms. During that period he was chairman of the Seymour of Tioga, and was admitted to practice at the judiciary general committee two sessions, and two ses- sions chairman of the finance committee, and speaker of the Senate in 1874, being the last regular speaker of the Senate under the old constitution. He was a member of the first committee which visited Washington, in con- junction with the committee of council from Philadel- phia, to initiate the Centennial Exhibition and bring it to the attention of Congress. He was chairman of the Legislative centennial committee, appointed to assist in the erection and care of the Pennsylvania buildings, but

In August 1861 he was appointed captain of Company L 2nd Pennsylvania cavalry. In August 1864 he was resigned that position to Senator Horatio Gates Jones appointed captain of Company H 207th Pennsylvania of Philadelphia.

CHAPTER XI.


TIOGA COUNTY'S PATRIOTISM IN THE CIVIL WAR- ROLLS OF COMMISSIONED OFFICERS.


T IOGA county was not settled or formed until some years after the close of the Revolution- ary war, and consequently none of her sons were actors in those scenes which "tried men's souls." A number of the old veterans came into the county as pioneers and identified themselves with its early settlement, and they now sleep within its borders.


During the war of 1812 a number went forth to battle, and when the British burned Buffalo, and a messenger came riding through the valley of the Tioga announcing that fact, the hardy pioneer threw down his ax and hastened to the frontier.


But it was reserved until 1861 for the sons of Tioga to display their courage and the love of country. There were then about 32,000 inhabitants in the county and about 4,000 between the ages of eighteen and forty-five, liable to military duty. Over two thousand of that number went into the Union army, and were engaged on the battle fields from the Pennsylvania line to the Gulf of Mexico, wherever the rebellion existed. Many lie buried in southern soil, who died on the field of battle, in hospital, or in prison, and many returned with honor- able wounds and honorable records. Every mail from the south and every click of the telegraph was watched with intense anxiety by those at home who had fathers, brothers and husbands in the great and terrible struggle with secession; and scarcely a day passed that either the mail or the telegraph did not bring sad news from the

long task. The searching of either township or county records or those in the adjutant generals' offices of Penn- sylvania and New York will not show the facts, for the men were accredited to the township and county where they enlisted, and not as hailing from Tioga county. It is only by a personal acquaintance with the soldier that the true record can ever by made up. This personal acquaintance no one possesses, and the only way that an approximately true record can be made is for the sur- vivors to communicate with some central organization.


We append a record in part, showing the commis- sioned officers of some of the Tioga companies. A com- plete roster would be too voluminous for our space. The date following the name is that from which the officer's rank dated.
