He first studied medicine with Dr. A. M. Neyman, in Butler Borough, and then pursued a course in the Jefferson Medical College, graduating in 1879. The following winter he returned and attended a course of lectures, thus doubly preparing himself for his profession.

He was born on the homestead farm in Centre township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, and was reared beneath the parental roof. After receiving a public school education, he spent several years at Witherspoon Institute, subsequently attended school at Waynesburg, and at the National Normal School, Lebanon, Ohio. He commenced reading medicine with Dr. A. M. Neyman, of Butler, attended lectures for three years at Jefferson Medical College, and graduated from that institution in 1880. He then opened an office at Glade Mills. As a member of the firm of McCandless & Marks, he was an extensive oil operator, and had fine producing territory in Middlesex township.
