Hon. George ". Woodward, our nominee
for Governor, is native Of Wayne county.
The Luzerne Union says he came to Wilkes
Barre when quite young man, to attend
the school Of DR.. Orton, the then principal OF
the old Academy, under whose tuition he
completed his academic education. He then
went to Geneva, N, Y, where he graduated
in the same class yith Gov. Seymour, and be.
tween whom we understand there has ever
existed the firmest friendship. About the
year 1928 George w. Woodward entered
upon the study of law in the Office of Garrick
Aallery, Esq. Upon the appointment of the
latter gentleman to the Judgeship of the
Northampton district, young Woodward
took charge of Mr.. Malery's extensive prac-
tice, and in very short time attained q high
position at the bar. His clear legal and logi-
cal, mind his untiring industry, and the un-
swerving integrity Of his character, made
lin mark of admiration far beyond his
years, among the Scotts the Conyngams, the
LcClrtocks, the Denisons and the other
great distinguished minds then composing the
Luzerne bar. Thus much for his early man.

become SO bright az ornament. His su bse-
quent attainments are too we'll known to
need further reference. From the unaided
boy he has become a lawyer and jurist un-
surpassed in the State while his learning,
his ability, his unspotted life, and last, though
not least, his orthodox Democracy, all point
ed to him as the proper man in the present
crisis to direct the destinies Of this geeat
