For a more detailed account of their antecedents — with proof of such pedigrees as are therein given — the reader is referred to "The Ancestry of Leander Howard Crall." My brief sketch contains no statement which can not be verified by history, well authenticated records, and the highest genealogical authorities. An ardent desire to preserve family data worthy of being transmitted to posterity has been the main in- centive of this work; and, if my kindred shall speak kindly of my humble effort, studying it with a desire to find from whom they are sprung, and to be exalted thereby in their lives, I shall be more than repaid for the labor and pains expended herein.

DESCENDANTS OF JOHN BEATTY AND SUSANNA ASFORDBY FIRST GENERATION 1. JoHN^ Beatty, founder of the distinguished Beatty Family of Ulster County, New York, was born in Ireland and was a descendant of the ancient landed and armigerous family of Beatty of that country, boasting descent from Prince Geoffrey of Scotland, an ally of Brian Boru, who participated in the battle of Clontarf, 1014 A.D. The exact date of the emigration of John Beatty to America is not known. The first mention of him in the Ulster County Records is 29 September, 1691, when he was returned, with five others, for Sheriff of Ulster County. The prominence of this office would argue that he had been a resident some time and had proved his worthiness of that trust. He was first resident of Esopus, now Kingston, and later moved to Marble- town, where he was a large land holder. On 9 June, 1719, a tract of land containing seven hundred acres was confirmed to him and his heirs by the Trustees of Marbletown. He was Trustee of Marbletown for many years and was Deputy Surveyor of the Province of New York, in which capacity he surveyed and laid out the famous Manor of Livingston at the request of Robert Livings- ton, the first Patroon, this document being still in pos- session of the Livingston family. It was an impor- tant factor at the time of the notable Anti-rent agi- tation in New York State during the last century. John Beatty married 7 November, 1691, Susanna Asfordby, by whom he had ten children, all of whom are mentioned in his will. His death occurred in Ulster County, New York, between 26 April, 1720, and 9 March, 1721, the respective dates of the making and proving of his will. Besides his children he mentions 101 102 BEATTY-ASFOEDBY also in his will his "trusty and well beloved wife, Susanna," and his "poor afflicted and distressed brother, Thomas Beatty, in Ireland," who had become blind, and their half sister who was takinsj care of him.* Susanna Asfordby, daughter and co-heiress of the Honorable William Asfordby of Stayne-in-the-Marsh, Lincolnshire, England, and Kingston and Marbletown, Ulster County, New York, the wife of the above John Beatty, was born probably in Ulster County, New York, soon after her parents emigrated to America. No rec- ord of her birth or baptism has been found, but as the English records end with the birth of three children to her parents in England, before their emigration, it is reasonable to infer that all the others were born in Kingston or Marbletown, Ulster County, where they settled. William Asfordby, the father of Susanna Asfordby, was a descendant of the royal line of Plantagenet, Kings of England, through his great-great-great-grand- mother, Alice Dymoke, as has been shown elsewhere in Part 1 of this volume. He brought with him from England a parchment containing twelve generations of his English ancestry, compiled by the then Herald of Arms, R. Chester. This ancient document passed from one generation of his descendants to another and is now in the possession of Mr. Leander Howard Crall of New York City, a descendant of Robert Beatty, the oldest child of John Beatty and Susanna Asfordby.f William Asfordby became a prominent man in the affairs of the young colony with whose destiny he had cast in his lot, his name appearing frequently upon the old Dutch records of Ulster County. He was a magis- trate for many years and held Court as Presiding Judge on many occasions. He was Sheriff of the Dis- trict of Esopus, and later of Ulster Count}^, when that County was erected, and was a member of the first •For copy of the wiH of John Beatty, see Section 1 of Appendix. tA facsimilie copy of this roost interesting document will be found in "The Ancestry of Leander Howard Crall," by Frank AUa- ben, opposite page 94. BEATTY-ASFORDBY 103 New York Assembly. He had married in England, Martha, daughter of William Burton of Burgh-in-the- Marsh, Lincolnshire, England, and of their eight chil- dren Susanna was the oldest surviving and, with her two sisters, Eleanor and Catherine, inherited the estate of her father and mother; the only son of William Asfordby dying in infancy. The will of William As- fordby was made orally, before three friends, of whom John Beatty was one. His wife, Martha, was made sole heir and executrix. The will is recorded at Kings- ton, Ulster County, New York. Susanna Asfordby was a remarkable woman in many ways; the experiences of those early pioneer days developing in her the sterling qualities of her parentage. She was married 7 November, 1691, to John Beatty and survived him many years. Some time after his death she removed, with a portion of her fam- ily, to Prince George County, Maryland, settling in that portion of it now known as Frederick County. Here she made large purchases of land. On 17 July, 1732, she bought one thousand acres from Daniel Dulany, and in May of the year following she purchased from Captain John Stoddart nine hundred and thirty-nine acres of land situated on the west bank of the Mona- cacy River. She thus owned about two thousand acres in Fred- erick County and she and her sons at once acquired a prominent position among the largest landed proprie- tors and most eminent citizens of that county. The Land Records of Prince George County shows that dur- ing her lifetime Susanna Beatty transferred large farms to three of her sons, who had accompanied her South, William, Thomas and Edward, and she seems to have displayed an energy, combined with a degree of busi- ness and executive ability, rarely found in a woman. Her will was the first one recorded in Frederick County. It is dated 20 June, 1742, and was proved 30 October, 1745,* her death occurring probably shortly before the •See Section 2 of Appendix for will of Susanna Asfordby. 104 BEATTY-ASFORDBY latter date. She describes herself as "Susanna Beatty of Manocosey in Prince George County in the Province of Maryland/' and mentions all of her children but Charles and Henry. Charles is known to have died in Marbletown, Ulster County, New York, and it is prob- able that Henry was also dead prior to this date. Her oldest son, Eobert, also died before his mother, and she mentions this fact in bequeathing his portion to his children. The original Asfordby Parchment, men- tioned above, had been brought with her to Maryland and now descended to her second son, William; the oldest son, whose right of inheritance it w^as, being dead. Children : .2 i Egbert Beatty, oldest child, born in Marble- town about 1692-93. He was member of the Marbletown Infantry 1715-17; fence viewer 1721 ; executor of his brother, Charles, 11 March, 1727; freeholder 1728; died prior to 1742, when his mother made her will and mentioned him as deceased. He married in 1719 Bata, daughter of Joris Middagh of Heicop, Holland, and Brooklyn, New York, and of his wife, Marritje Martens Van Yssel- steyn. '3 ii William Beatty (see second generation). 4 ill Charles Beatty, baptized 1698; died 1727. He married Janette, daughter of Thomas Jan- sen, by whom he had one child, Bata, both of whom he mentions in his will, made 20 March, 1726, proved 11 March, 1727. Neither Charles nor his daughter are mentioned in his mother's will. 5 iv Agnes Beatty, baptized 29 October, 1699; was living unmarried when her mother made her will in 1742. ■6 V Jghn Beatty, baptized 2 March, 1701. He was a freeholder of Marbletown in 1728. Re- moved to Maryland, where his will was BEATTY-ASFORDBY 105 proved in Cecil County 1 June, 1749. He ^.-^"'""'*' mentions wife, Elizabeth, and "iDeloved chil- dren," but gives no names of the latter. 7 vi Judge Thomas Beatty, baptized 14 March, 1703; removed to Maryland, where he ac- quired considerable estate. He was Justice of Prince George County from 1739 to 1748; of Frederick County in 1748 and 1749, 1752 to 1760, and was a member of the Maryland House of Burgesses 1757 and 1758. His will was made in February, 1768, and proved 8 April, 1769. In it he mentions ■ wife, Mary, and children, Thomas, Charles, Susanna (wife of Nethan Maynard), James and Sarah, the last two being minors at the time. 8 vii Edward Beatty, mentioned in wills of both his parents, was born in Ulster County, New York. Although no record of his baptism is found on the register of the old Dutch Church at Kingston, it is presumable that he was born there, as the family are known to have been continuous residents of that part till the father's death and the other children were all born there. He, too, removed to Maryland with his mother and acquired land there as early as 1730. His will was made 3 Feb- ruary and proved 18 of same month, 1755. He mentions wife, Susannah, and sons Eze- kiel, Ezra and Elijah, also an unborn child. His wife died the following August or Sep- tember, as her will, also on file at Frederick, was made 18 August and proved 9 September, 1755. She also mentions sons Ezekiel, Ezra and Elijah, with Edward, evidently the post- humous child mentioned by her husband. In a deed executed in 1790 by Ezekiel and Elijah it is recorded that this child died soon after birth. 9 viii Martha Beatty (see second generation) . 106 BEATTY-ASFORDBY 10 ix James Beatty, baptized 11 September, 1709, mentioned in wills of both parents. He re- moved to Maryland, where he died prior to his mother, although not prior to the date of her will. His own will, recorded at Annapolis, was proved 29 January, 1742-43, a few months before that of his mother. He evi- dently died unmarried, as he bequeaths all his property equally to his brothers and sisters and the children of his deceased brother, Rob- ert. 11 X Henry Beatty, baptized 30 December, 1711. He is mentioned in will of his father 1721, but not in his mother's in 1742. He prob- ably died in the interval. No record of his marriage or evidence that he had any chil- dren has been found. SECOND GENEEATION 3 William^ Beatty (John^), second child of John Beatty and Susanna Asfordby, was baptized at the old Dutch Church at Kingston, Xew York, 9 June, 1695.* He was a member of the Marbletown Infantry Militia and a freeholder of Marbletown in 1728. He is men- tioned in the wills of both his father and mother. Some years after John Beatty's death his widow re- moved to Prince George County, Maryland, settling in that part now known as Frederick County, with several of her children. William Beatty was one of these. Here he married Elizabeth Carmack, daughter of Cor- nelius Carmack of Frederick County. The will of Cornelius Carmack was made 13 May, 1746. "j* Elizabeth Carmack died 15 May, 1756, before her husband. He does not mention his wife in his will, which was dated 18 May, 1757, and proved 20 August, 1757. He names as his heirs his son William and his three daughters, Eleanor, Mary and Anne.J In a statement made 1 July, 1856, by Eli Beatty of Hagerstown, Maryland, son of William Beatty, Junior (12), and grandson of William Beatty (3), he declares that his father, William Beatty, inherited the original homestead of Susanna Asfordby Beatty from his father, William Beatty, and states also that the tract of land so inherited contained two hundred and sixty-eight acres.

Id her father's will, made 18 May, 1757, she is mentioned as Mary Cary, showing that she was already married to her second husband, John Cary, at that date, which is a little earlier than the one mentioned in the Petition in Chancery.* John Cary, the second husband of Mary Beatty, was a considerable landholder of Frederick County, Mary- land, as is shown by the land records at the Land Office at Annapolis, Md. ; the patents granted to him between the years 1752 and 1764 covering about eleven hundred acres of land.f His will is dated 23 November, 1773, and was probated in May, 1777. He makes his wife, Mary, his executrix and divides his estate" between her and their five surviving children, two having died in infancy, beside whom he expressed the desire to" be buried: J Children^ 18 i John Dku Cary (see fourth generation). •A copy of this Petition, which is very lengthy, Is in:.the'^pos«w- 6ion of Dr. Christopher Johnston ot Battimore," a great-grandion : of the Josias Clapham mentioned therein. tSee Section 7 of Appendix. tSee Section -8 of Appendix for certified copy of the will of John ■ Gary. 109 110 BEATTY-ASFORDBY 19 ii William Gary (see fourth generation). 20 iii Eleanor (Xelly) Gary, born 1762; men- tioned as deceased in her father's will in 1773. 21 iv Elizabeth (Betsy) Gary, born 1764; co- heiress of her father; died unmarried. 22 V Jacob Gary, born 1766; mentioned as de- ceased in his father's will in 1773. 23 vi EoBERT Turner Gary, born 1768; co-heir of father; died unmarried. 24 vii David Gary, born 1770; co-heir of father; died unmarried. 17 Mary^ Middagh (Martha^ Beatty, John^), the daughter of Johannes Middagh by his wife, Martha Beatty (9), was born 7 May, 1732.* Her father was the son of Joris or George Middagh, the son of Gaptain Aert Teunissen Middagh of Heicop, Holland, who emi- grated to New Netherland in the early days of the new colony and became one of its leading citizens. The exact date of his emigration is not known, but Stiles, the Brooklyn historian, records the fact that he re- ceived a patent for one hundred acres of land 24 Octo- ber, 1654, at the Wallabout, Long Island, now a part of the city of Brooklyn, New York. The wife of Gaptain Aert Teunissen was Breckje Hansen Bergen, daughter of Hans Hansen Bergen and Sara de Eapelje. Hans Hansen Bergen was, as his name indicates, Hans son of Hans, of Bergen, Norway. He was the founder of the Bergen Family of Brooklyn, which still has many prominent representatives in that city and elsewhere. He emigrated to New Amsterdam at a very early period. His wife, Sara de Eapelje, is celebrated as be- ing the first female white child born in the colony of New Netherland. She was the daughter of Joris Jan- sen de Eapelje and Gatherine, daughter of Joris Trico of Paris, France, who were among the Walloons and French who, in 1623, helped to establish the first per- manent settlement in New Netherland. A most inter- •See Section 10 of Appendix.

To this work we have been indebted for much valuable information in compiling the early part of the present volume from data collected during years of re- search in Europe and America. The mother of John Middagh, husband of Martha Beatty and father of Mary Middagh, was Marritje Martens Van Ysselsteyn, daughter of Marten Cornelise Van Ysselsteyn of Ysselsteyn, Holland, who emigrated as early as 1660 and was one of the founders and origi- nal proprietors of Schenectady, New York. Captain Joris Middagh, the son of Captain Aert Teunissen Middagh, seems to have settled in the neigh- borhood of Kingston, the home of the Beatty family, two of his children marrying into that family. Bata Middagh married Robert Beatty (2), the oldest son of John Beatty (1) and Susanna Asfordby, and John Mid- dagh married Robert's youngest sister, Martha Beatty (9).* Mary Middagh married 2 August, 1751, William Ritchie, who emigrated from Scotland to America about 1742, the son of Robert Ritchie of Angus, Scot- land.f Children : 25 i William Ritchie, Junior (see fourth gen- eration) . 26 ii Martha Ritchie, born 5 August, 1755; mar- ried Henry McCleery; died 13 December, 1813. 27 iii John Ritchie, bom 20 July, 1757; married Catherine Beatty. 28 iv Susan Ritchie, born 4 May, 1759. •For baptismal records of John Middagh and Martha Beatty and record of their marriage, see Section 4 of Appendix. tSee Section 10 of Appendix. 113 BEATTY-ASFORDBY 29 V Mary Ritchie, born 10 April, 1761 ; died 16 May, 1816. 30 vi Zarniah Ritchie, born 24 Angnst, 1763. 31 vii Abner Ritchie, born 17 September, 1765; married Mary Jenkins.

FOURTH GENERATION 18 Dr. John Dhu^ Gary (Mary^ Beatty, William^, John^), oldest son of John Gary and Mary Beatty (14), was born in July, 1758, at Fredericktown, Maryland. He was an officer in the American Revolution,* and his great-great-grandsons have in their possession (1907) two pistols captured by him from a British officer, and an old land patent issued to him for military service and signed by Thomas Jefferson. John Dhu Gary was not only a physician of promi- nence in his native county, but was also a man of high literary attainments, being noted as one of Maryland's poets. He owned and published in Frederick, during the years 1798-1800, a weekly newspaper which he named "The Key" in compliment to his friend, General John Ross Key. He represented his District in the Legislature several terms. He married in 1788 Alice Lee, daughter of Philip Richard Francis Lee and Elinor Lee of Charles Gounty, Maryland. Philip R. F.

She was born 20 June, 1773, at Hagerstown, Maryland,^ and was said to have been exceptionally beautiful. She was educated at the best schools for girls that the country afforded at that time. Her children were all well educated and her sons became prominent in their professions. By the second marriage of her father. Dr. Fritchie, she had one half-sister, Mrs. Catherine Thomas of Frederick, Maryland, and one half-brother, John Fritchie, of the same city. John Fritchie married but died without issue, leaving considerable wealth, which, after the death of his widow, was, by the conditions of his will, transferred to his two sisters, Mrs. Thomas and Mrs. Gary. His widow is the subject of Whittier's well- known poem, "Barbara Fritchie." Maria Barbara Fritchie survived her husband, Wil- liam Gary, Senior, and married again 16 May, 1808, Robert Eitchie (42) of Fredericktown, Maryland, son of William Ritchie, Junior (26), and his wife, Frances Oilman.** She survived Eobcrt Eitchie, also, and died 23 May, 1834, at Fort Ball, near Tiffin, Ohio.ft Children : 34 i Cyrus Gary, born 13 October, 1794, at •See Section 13 of Appendix, Record 1. tMaryland Archives, Vol. 18, pp. 189, 197. tSee Section 13 of Appendix, Record 1. §Renord of Marriage Licenses, Office of Clerk of Circuit Court of Frederick County, Maryland.

While he was at college, Baltimore was threatened by the English fleet, and Cyrus Gary, with some fellow- students, volunteered his services and was in Fort McHenry at the time of its bombard- ment. After a thorough college education he studied law and began the practice of his profession in Staunton, Ya., in partnership with Judge Briscoe G. Baldwin. Later he removed to Lewisburg, Ya., now West Yir- ginia, where, in 1820, he married Mary Sidles Arbuckle, by whom he had one daughter, Eliza Green Gary, who died in infancy, and two sons. Gyrus Eobert Gary, born 20 Feb- ruary, 1829, died unmarried, and Gharles William Gary, born 20 September, 1826, who graduated at the Yirginia Military Institute, and later, in medicine, at the University of Yirginia. He died unmarried. This line is now extinct. Gyrus Gary was a man of high legal attainment and great eloquence and was one of the most prominent men of his day in Yirginia. He was a member of the Legis- lature of Yirginia from Greenbrier Gounty during the session of 1829-30,* and at the time of his death was a candidate for Con- gress.

She was educated at Miss Marcella's Seminary at Frederick, Md., and was among those who took part in the recep- tion given in that city to General Lafayette and brilliantly described the occasion in a let- ter written at that time. She married Gen- eral Henry Colgate Brish in Frederick, Md., 7 December, 1824, Bishop Johns of the Protestant Episcopal Church performing the ceremony. After some years residence in Frederick they removed to Fort Ball, Ohio, where General Brish became a distinguished citizen. They made the whole distance from Frederick to Tiffin in a covered carriage, the first one brought to Seneca County, landing in Tiffin on July 6, 1828, a Sunday afternoon. They took with them also Mrs. Brish's piano, likewise the first to be seen in Seneca County. It was constructed in London, England, at an early date, and is now in the possession of the ^ Tiffin Historical Society. Among the most important trusts confided to General Brish after his settling in Ohio was the manage- ment of the affairs of the Seneca Indians and his appointment by the Government to escort them from Ohio to their new Eeservation West of the Mississippi River in the year 1831 ; for which service he received a large grant of land near Tiffin, upon which handsome estate he lived in affluence until his death in the late fifties, his widow continuing her residence there until her death, 14 March, 1885. They had no children. The following is taken from a History of Seneca County. "General Henry Colgate Brish was twice elected member of the Ohio Legislature — was Common Pleas Judge two terms — was gov. agent who re- moved the different tribes of Indians from Northern Ohio to their new reservations far- BEATTY-ASFOEDBY 117 ther West,* and served in many minor posi- tions of trust and honor the people of Tiffin and Seneca County." Maria Barbara Fritchie (Gary) had two children by her second husband, Robert Ritchie, viz. : Frances Maria Ritchie (see sixth generation), and George Gil- man Ritchie, who was born 13 January, 1867,t and died unmarried at Tiffin, Ohio. 25 William^ Ritchie, Junior (Mary^ Middagh, Martha^ Beatty, John^), oldest son of William Ritchie, the Emigrant, and Mary Middagh (17), was born 27 March, 1753, and married Frances Gilman. He died 18 September, 1814.J Children : 40 i William Ritchie, living in Annapolis, Mary- land, in 1805. 41 ii Robert Ritchie (see fifth generation). These two sons of William Ritchie, Junior, and Fran- ces Gilman are the only children of whom we have any record. The letters of William, the second junior of that name, to his brother Robert (see Section 11 of Appendix), speak of the latter as "only brother." A postscript to one of the letters mentions "Mama and Mariah," who might be a sister, but there is not suffi- •"It Is a settlement of the Wyandot Indians who inhabit this place.

He gave me a moving account of their strong attachment to the familiar scenes of their infancy, and in particular to the burial places of their kindred, and of their great reluctance to leave them. He had witnessed many such re- movals, and always with pain, though he knew that they departed for their own good. The question whether this tribe should go or stay had been discussed among them a day or two before, in a hut erected for the purpose, the logs of which still lay upon the ground before the inn.

FIFTH GENERATION 32 George^ Gary (John Dhu,* Mary^ Beatty, Wil- liam,2 John^), oldest son of Dr. John Dhu Gary (18) and Alice Lee, was born 7 August, 1789, near "Allen's Fresh," Gharles County, Maryland. After a classical education he studied law with Ghief Justice Taney in Frederick, Maryland, and later he settled in Georgia. He was a member from Georgia of the eighteenth Con- gress and was often heard in debate with the master statesmen of that period, being a ripe, classical scholar and a fluent speaker. In the annals of Congress for 1823 are recorded two of his speeches; one an answer to the speech of Daniel Webster on the Grecian Cause, the other an answer to Buchanan's advocacy of the erection of a monument to George Washington. Both will attest his eloquence and erudition. He was a political favorite, his friends deeming no position of honor beyond his attainment, and he was once named as a probable can- didate for the Presidency of the United States, his chances being weighed against those of his friend, Wil- liam A. Crawford of Georgia. But his political aspira- tions were blighted by premature decline in health; his last days being spent in literary retirement and the edit- ing of a journal, "The Hickory Nut." He died at Thomaston, Georgia, 10 September, 1843. George Gary married 1 January, 1818, Ann Fowke of Maryland, whose line of descent runs back to William Fowke, born 1403, died 1438, known as William Fowke of Brewood, Staffordshire, England. It is said of Ann Fowke Gary that in her girlhood she was the society favorite of Washington, "having the advantage of wealth and the graces of the accomplished." She died 119 120 BEATTY-ASFORDBY 6 June, 1820, and was buried in the Crawford burial ground, Columbia County, Georgia.

At the time of his death, I April, 1857, he was, and had been for many years, Commissioner in Chancery and the presiding Judge of the County and had held office in the Court of Appeals in Lewisburg from the time of its organization until his death, when the Court con- ferred the same office upon his only surviving son, James Hervey Otey Cary, who held the position until the Confederate War closed the sessions of the Court.

John Mathews, born 30 October, 1768, died November 10, 1849, was the son of William Mathews (born 1742, died November, 1772) and his wife, Fran- ces Crowe. William Mathews was the son of Captain John Mathews (of lineal descent from Lord David, founder of the Welsh clan of Mathews), who settled in Augusta County, Virginia, 1737.

He served through the entire Civil War in the Confed- erate army. He began the practice of law at Lewisburg, West Virginia, and soon had a large and lucrative clientele. On the death of Judge Patton he was appointed to the Su- preme Bench of the State, and elected to a full term at the next election. During a por- tion of his incumbency he was President of the Court. He is regarded as the ablest of BEATTY-ASFOEDBY 123 the Judges who have adorned that Bench.

After preparation at the best classical schools he entered the college at Athens, Geor- gia, where he graduated with distinction and began the study of law under Judge Lumpkin of the Supreme Court of Georgia at Athens. With his brilliant attain- ments he soon became a leading member of the Bar. While quite a young man he was nominated for Con- gress and was defeated only by a small majority. He removed from Georgia to Texas in 1855. Here he was District Attorney for the Sixth Judicial District, In- spector of Schools, and held other positions of honor until his death in 1873 at Henderson, Texas. In 1840 he had married Frances Flewellen of Thomaston, Geor- gia, a cousin of Dr. E. A. Flewellen, chief surgeon in General Hood's Brigade, C. S. A., and State Senator of Georgia, 1896.

He was elected by the Democratic Party as Auditor of Seneca Countv, which office he held six years. In 1851 he represented the Seneca District in Congress, and was re-elected in 1853. His services in this body were distinguished, and at this time there began a strong attachment between himself and Stephen A. Douglas, which lasted until the latter's death. As member of Congress he established, in 1855, the L^nited States Courts for the Northern District of Ohio at Cleveland, and was Clerk of those Courts from 1855 to 1866.

I felt perhaps more than ordi- nary pleasure, partly from my not receiving a single line from you for a great length of time and partly from a gratification which will always result to my mind on seeing an only Brother, one as dear to my soul as my existence itself, alive to something like feeling and brotherly affection. "After I had written to you repeatedly, and received nothing in return, I had like to have made a rather precipitate resolution, not to have written you again. But nature on her formation of man implanted in his Bosom certain qualifications, which and which only ren- der life sustainable, and which cannot be eradicated un- til a man so far departs from his nature as to become inferior to the beasts, over whom natures God originally gave him Dominion. Among those passions or affec- tions of the mind is the love one brother should ever bear toward the other, and it was this mental stimulus which urged me me to write, whether You did or did not answer my letters.

He passed peacefully away at his home on West Washington street, having been in poor health for a number of years, . . . BEATTY-ASFORDBY 165 "Martin Knupp was well known throughout this part of Ohio, and in all his business dealings was recognized as an honest and honorable man. He was a citizen re- spected by everybody. He was an uncompromising Democrat, and before his ill health was always found in the front ranks of his party laboring in its interest and for the advancement of its principles. "Mr. Knupp was born and raised in Tiffin, Ohio, where he attended Heidelberg college for a number of years. He was also a student at Kenyon college. He was a son of Hon. Geo. Knupp, who was a prominent citizen and politician of Tiffin. His mother was Fran- ces Ritchie, who came from a family of noted and tal- ented personages. He was born on the 4th of August, 1841, and died Feb. 12th, 1908. "Mr. Knupp studied law with Judge Pillars of Tif- fin, who is now dead, and practiced with Judge Mc- Cauley, who is still living at Tiffin, being recognized as one of the ablest lawyers in Ohio. He moved to Ottawa in 1867, where he engaged in law practice with Hon. David I. Brown. He was married in Ottawa to Miss Mary Minerva Pugh on Nov. 26th, 1868, to which union two daughters w^re born, Frances and Georgia, who are left with their mother to mourn the departure of a companion and father. "From Ottawa Mr. Knupp removed with his family to Deshler, where he continued to practice law. During his residence in Deshler he was elected to the office of Prosecuting Attorney of this county, when he removed to Napoleon in 1878. He served two terms as Prose- cutor with distinction and fidelity, . . . "After his term of office he formed a law partnership with the late Walter Stephenson, which partnership continued until the removal of Mr. Stephenson from the county and state. "The Henry County Bar Association held a meeting at the Wellington last night, to take appropriate action 166 BEATTY-ASFORDBY upon the death of Mr. Knupp, who was President of the Association.

"Resolved, That in the death of brother Knupp, our Bar has lost an able and esteemed member, who as a lawyer was always faithful and true; a student who thoroughly mastered his cases; and an untiring and zealous worker; whose briefs always showed rare tact and ability. He had high sense of professional honor. While he justly appreciated his relations to his clients and strictl}^ and fully performed his duty to them, neither the glory of success nor the hope of reward ever tempted him to take an unfair advantage or do a dis- honorable act, such was his high sense of professional honor that he regarded the ethics of his profession as sacred. "Resolved, That the sympathy of the Association is extended to his family in their bereavement and that a copy of these sentiments be spread upon the journal of the Court of Common Pleas of this County.
