Washington county. New York, and educated at
Argyle Academy In 1859 he began the study of
law with Hon. James Gibson, at Salem, N Y,
and continued his studies during 1860 IN New
York city. under Hon. Charles Crazy. He was
admitted to the bar in November, 1860,
after which he located at White
hall, New York, where he practiced
law until the spring of 1861, when, feeling it his
duty to aid the government in suppressing the
Rebellion, he undertook to raise a company
The recruits, as fast as enlisted, were placed in
barracks at Albany, where an order was received
to consolidate all parts of companies and regi-
ments and forward them to Washington at once
Under this order, his men were assigned to Com
pany l. Ninety third New York volunteers, but
they refused to go unless Robert
son went with them. Rather than leave
the men, he enlisted as private,
but was made first sergeant, and in that ca
pacity went to the front He was soon made
second lieutenant His regiment being on duty
as guard for army headquarters, he grew tired
rendered him as aid on the staff of Gen. n A
Miles, who commanded fighting brigade in the
Second Corps. While on duty he was twice
wounded-once in the charge at Spottsylvania.

upon the knee, and again on May 80,
1864 at Tolopotomy creek. where he
was shot from his horse in a charge, the
ball passing through his abdomen from the front
of the right hip to the back of the left. at which
time he was reported as nortally wounded. Pos
sessing strong constitution, he recovered suf-
ficently to go to the 'front.' before Petersburg, in
the fall Of 1864, but his wound breaking out
afresh, he was dicharged "for disability from
wounds received in action" Sept. 3. 1864 For
these services he received two brevet commits

Just what has been needed. We are for it and
the ticket, without wish to criticise anything
or anybody. We will commend both TO the con-
sideration of voters" In the Third district the
general opinion that ne ticket could be more
satisfactory. and that the platform, in every
feature. would meet with general acce ptance.
Ralph s. Gregory said he was content after
so short canvass, to get second place. He only
came into the contest for Lieutenant governor on
the urgent solicitation of friends. but everything
said and done received his hearty sympathy, and
would get his direct support during the cam
paign.
Senator Drake expressed satisfaction with the
platform and ticket For his part of the State,
nothing could DO better
w. L. Taylor, president of the Young Mems
Republican Club said: '"This DAYS work will
give our organization new life We have nearly
forty thousand names on our rolls and believe
through the excellent ticket selected and the
emphatic utterances of the platform. especially
issue, we will be able to enlarge the membership
to sixty thousand. I have talked with many
delegates and Others from all parts of the State,
and have not found complaint, either as to the
men nominated or the resolutions
An enthusiastic gentleman from the north
part of the State remarked, Nothing was done
that ought not to have been done. / am
pleased with the platform, not only from a
personal view, but on account Of
the party 1t will strengthen US 500 votes
in my county and those adjoining That many
voters have been waiting to hear from this con
vention, and The platform is just what they
want. They are men whose positions give them
weight, but they have been fearful that they
would have inducement to come back to the
fold. They have it now, and will accept it. y
These views were Endorsed by many others.
