He was appointed to West\n Point in 1831 by President Jackson; after his graduation in\n 1835 he received a lieutenancy in the army in time to serve in\n the Seminole War. The following year he resigned his\n commission in order to study law at Transylvania University.\n He settled in St. Louis, Missouri in 1837 and began practicing\n law; he was appointed U. S. district attorney for Missouri but\n removed for political reasons by President Tyler. He served as\n mayor of St. Louis, 1842-1843, and as judge of the court of\n common pleas, 1845-1849. He resigned in 1849 to resume his law\n practice, and in 1852 moved to Maryland where he practiced law\n chiefly before the Supreme Court of the United States. In\n 1855, President Pierce made him the first solicitor in the\n court of claims in the U. S. but President Buchanan dismissed\n him in 1858 because of his pronounced views on slavery. He\n gained prestige among anti- slavery people when he acted as\n counsel for the plaintiff in the celebrated Dred Scott case;\n he helped secure a defense attorney for John Brown after the\n Harper's Ferry incident. He was appointed postmaster general\n in 1861 by President Lincoln, and while in office, organized\n the postal system for the army, introduced compulsory payment\n of postage and free delivery in cities, improved the registry\n system, established the railway post office, organized the\n postal draft plan, stopped the franking privileges of\n postmasters, and was instrumental in bringing about the Postal\n Union Convention at Paris in 1863. After resigning from\n Lincoln's cabinet, he continued to loyally work for Lincoln.\n He believed in Lincoln's plan of reconstruction, and decried\n the disenfranchisement of the Southern whites and\n enfranchisement of the negroes. During the late 1860s he\n returned to the Democratic party.","Woodbury Blair, the son of Montgomery and Mary Elizabeth\n (Woodbury) Blair, was born in St. Louis, Missouri, on\n September 1, 1852, and died on October 14, 1933. He graduated\n Phillips Exeter Academy, and Harvard University, 1874, and its\n law school, 1876. He practiced law in his father's office in\n Washington, D.C.; was counsel for Citizens' National Bank of\n Washington; trust officer and vice-president of National\n Savings and Trust Company; director in Columbia Title\n Insurance Company, Washington Railway and Electric Company,\n Potomac Electric Company, and Norfolk and Washington Steamboat\n Company; and, president of the Metropolitan Club. He was also\n president of the Central dispensary and emergency hospital of\n Washington, which he developed from a small building to an\n institution of nearly a block, with 280 beds, 300 employees,\n modern nurses' home, new interns' home, x-ray laboratory, and\n out-patient and emergency departments. He was married to the\n former Emily N. Wallach.","Francis Preston Blair, lawyer and army officer, was born in\n Lexington, Kentucky, on February 10, 1821, and died in St.\n Louis, Missouri, in July 1875. After graduating from Princeton\n University in 1842, he studied law in Washington, was admitted\n to the Kentucky bar in 1843, and began to practice in St.\n Louis. When the Mexican War began he enlisted in the army as a\n private; following the war he returned to his practice in St.\n Louis. He was elected to congress, and in 1857, spoke in favor\n of colonizing the negroes of the United States in Central\n America. Following the South Carolina secession convention, he\n stressed the importance in preventing the seizure by state\n authorities of the St. Louis arsenal, and became the head of\n the military organization then formed, which occasionally\n guarded the arsenal. As brigadier-general in the army, he\n commanded a division in the Vicksburg campaign, led his troops\n in the battles of Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge, and\n was at the head of the 17th corps during Sherman's campaigns\n in 1864-1865. After the war he served in state and government\n positions.","Charles Levi Woodbury, lawyer, was born in Portsmouth, New\n Hampshire, on May 22, 1820; and, died in 1898.
