He at first attended Howe's Academy, at Lancaster, Ohio, and for two years, 1841 and 1842, he attended the college of Augusta, Kentucky. He passed his freshman year, 1843, in the Ohio University,at Athens, and the remaining three years of his college life were spent at Princeton College, graduating therefrom in 1846. He studied law at Columbus, Ohio, in the office of Henry Stanbery, and was admitted to practice in the Supreme Court of Ohio and the Circuit Court of the United States in 1848.

In October, 1878, he moved his main office to Washington, District of Columbia, still retaining one in Columbus, Ohio, and in other places throughout the United States.
