V.'s," several members of the family,
including the grandfather Of the subject
of this sketch, having won fame in the
revolutionary struggle. His was
also family of jurists and
statesmen, and all these qualities
seem to have been inherited by him
to large degree. So far as the instincts
of the gentleman go, no "F. F. "" ever
guarded his honor and his department
more carefully than this scion OF the Old
Dominion family. So circumspect was
he in this respect that he gained in early
life the title Of Gentleman George"
He received an academic education,
studied law and was admitted to the bar
in Cincinnati. He also took course at
one of the German universities, and was
in fact broad and finished scholar.

Congress in 1856, serving till 1865. In
1854 he was the Democratic candidate

Governor of Ohio, but was defeated, and
