Mr.. Wood was born in Montpelier in 1923.
Natures own hand kindled the sacred flame
in the boys soul. Its CLEAN early caught
the public eye and its light has grown in
purity and brilliancy with every advancing
year. Honors and triuinphs, and a national
fame, have been the rewards of his stead
fast devotion to his art He pursued his
studies in Boston, in New York, in London,
Paris, Florence and Rome, and at their con-
clusion opened a studio in New York. He
made his first exhibit at the Academy in
1858, was elected an associate in 1869, a
member in 1871 and vice-president in 1880.
He was for nine years president of the
American Water Color Society, is mem
Der Of the New York Etching Club, and
also an honorary member of the British
Society of Painters and Etchers. His spe-
cialty is portraiture and scenes in American
village and country life. Montpelier has
been the place of his summer abode, and
here and In this vicinity he has found the
originals of some of his most popular paint
ings. Some forty years ago, on the declivity
OF a wooded glen, part OF the paternal
estate, overlooking the village OF Montpelier,
Mr.. Wood built picturesque cottage which
he christened " Athenwood," and which for
many years was his summer home and
studio, cheered and enlivened by the pres
ence OF fondly-cherished wife whose years
of ideal happiness, succeeded by years OF
confirmed invalidism, were peacefully
ended in New York two years ago. Perched
on the rocks, higher up the declivity, COM
manding wide view of the valley and hills
70 the north and the winding course OF the
Winooski to the east, Mr.. Wood has built a
new studio. There, overlooking the life and
action OF the town, remote from its din and

The sixty-sixth annual meeting OF the Ma
tional Academy of Design was held in New
Y York city a week ago. Interest in that oc-
casion will be felt locally, from the fact that
our highly y-esteemed townsman MIR. Thomas
Waterman Wood, for eleven years vice pres
ident of the Academy, was then advanced
to its presidency. The meeting, says the
art editor of the Ne,o York Herald, was one
OF the most largely attended ever held, and
it was also most harmonious and satisfac-
tory. OF the fifty.eight members present
thirty-one voted for Mr. Wood, twenty-five
for j. @. A. Ward and two for their favor
ties. Mr.. Huntington, the retiring presi-
dent, expressed his pleasure with the asso-
cations choice of his successor. Mr.. f. ID
Millet, who has won distinction as a journal
list as well as painter, succeeds Mr. Wood
as vice. president
