Description:Excerpt from Proceedings of the Fifty-First Convocation of the University of the State of New York: Albany, New York, October 21 and 22, 1915Missouri. While his father was absent as a surgeon in the army, during the Civil War, Doctor mckelway became an inmate of the family of his grandfather, who resided in Trenton, New Jersey, in which he remained till he finished his studies in the local schools. His grandfather was a man of liberal education and marked erudition and culture. Doctor mckelway did not receive a college education, but I fear that for this he himself was solely responsible, through his anxiety immediately to begin literary work. On leaving school he entered upon the study of law in the city of New York and was admitted to the bar in the year l866; and though he never practised the profession, his legal education proved of great benefit to him during his subse quent career, and the broad judicial view of public Questions, for which he was noted, was, doubtless, largely due to his legal training. While studying law he wrote a great deal for the newspapers and, after admission to the bar, devoted himself wholly to the profession of journalism at first as correspondent for some of the leading newspapers m New York City. In 870 he became an editorial writer on the Brooklyn Eagle, with which newspaper he remained until l878, when he became editor of the Albany Argus. As such he continued until 1884, when he returned to the Brooklyn Eagle as editor in chief, a position that he held until his death.To me has been assigned the task of speaking of Doctor Mc Kelway as a neighbor and as a citizen, and the task is a pleasing one, as it is in the relation not only of a neighbor, but of a very dear friend that my mind constantly recalls my memories of the doctor. I shall endeavor not to trespass on the themes which have been confided to other gentlemen, members of the doctor's own profession of journalism and, therefore, much better quali fied than myself to speak of that part of his labors. But to appre ciate properly his character as a neighbor and as a citizen, his work as the editor of a newspaper must be constantly borne in mind, for it was necessarily in that Sphere that he chieﬂy dis charged his duty as a citizen.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
