House Of Representatives for the past
fifteen years, Is a printer by trade, serv-
ing his time in the office Of the Shenango
Pa) Citizen. He graduated in 1858, and
worked as a. journeyman until the out
break of the civil war. through which
he served with distinction. being severely
wounded at Gettysburg. After the war
he became q country editor and banker,
and then Congressman from Pennsylva-
mia.
Maj. Mcdowell recalls with love and
veneration the country printer who was
his first foreman, and was also editor
and proprietor Of the paper. This coun-
try printer was very fond Of young Alec.
and often addressed him in tender and
endearing terms. He fondly recalls the
first occasion on which such tender re-
gard was shown him. The paper then
had an edition Of about 81 legitimates
and q couple Of score of extra copies
were thrown in for ''deadheads'' and ex-
changes.

that It would keep warm to distribute

place. which was the back OF the stove
