Chandler has counted so much in pop

the great current of important events,
that It is hard to compress into outline
the dramatic and almost tragic story Of
such a pivotal and essential life.
He was born at Concord. y. H.. December q
1855; received common school education, studied
law in Concord and at Harvard law school. from
which he was graduated in 1855: admitted to the
bar the same year. Like Ben" Harrison. he
began his active career as State Supreme Court
reporter, publishing as such FIVE valuable vol
umes; became earnestly engaged in politics and
associaed with the Republican party, serving as
secretary and aftcrWari as chairman Of the
New Hampshire Republican State Committee
In 1852 he was elected 70 the New Hampshire
House Of Representatives. Of which he was
speaker for two successive terms, in 1854 In
November. 1854 he was employed b. the Navy
Department as special counsel 20 prosecute the

and each deliberately appointed aim to

that each of these three Presidents was
martyred. Chandler was partisan; there
never was a shade Of doubt on his ardent
Republicanism; but he was interchangeable,
able. fearless. He sat in President Ar
thurs cabinet, graced with the navy port
folio. and he and Arthur maintained af-
feCtionate and confidential relations. and
Chandler laid the keel Of the New
Navy and was a success, as he always
has been.
MIR, Chandler" says John d, Long ex-
Secretary Of the Navy, brought 10 the
