Excerpt from A Centennial Biographical History of Crawford County, Ohio

The elements of success in life consist in both innate capacity and deter mination to excel. Where either is wanting, failure is almost certain in the outcome. The study of a successful life, therefore, serves both as a source of information and as a stimulus and encouragement to those who have the capacity. As an important lesson in this connection we may appropriately quote Longfellow, who said We judge ourselves by what we feel capa ble of doing, while we judge others by what they have already done. A faithful personal history is an illustration of the truth of this observation.
