Samuel Freeman Miller was born in Rich
mond, KY, Anril 5. 1915. He graduated
at the medical department Of Transylvania
University, Kentucky, in 1888, and having
practiced medicine for a short time, gave it
up, studied law and entered upon the prac-
tice of that profession. He was strongly in
favor of emancipation, and, although
he took no part in politics,
he did not find his surroundings pleasant
and In 1888 removed to Iowa, where he be-
came one Of the leaders of the Republican
party. He was frequently solicited to be-
come a candidate for office, but he believed
that it would be to his interest to stick
closely TO bis profession Of the law, in which
he deservedly took high rank. In 1862 he
was appointed by President Lincoln asso
ciate justice Of the United States supreme
court and was regarded as the ablest law
yer among the supreme court Justices.

stood foremost among the ranks of honora-
bic fnanciers, never taking advantage of
the slightest questionable circumstance
which might result in injury to others.
