His elementary education was acquired at the public schools of Worth township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, and he then attended the Witherspoon Institute, at Butler. He taught school for two terms in Worth township, after which he became a student at the State Normal School at Edinboro, Pennsylvania, and was graduated from this institution in the class of 1889. He spent one year in teaching and reading medicine under a preceptor, after which he matriculated at the Western Pennsylvania Medical College, later the University of Pittsburgh, and was graduated in the class of 1892 with the degree of Doctor of Medicine. For a short time he practiced in association with Dr. Beatty, at Leeper, Clarion County, Pennsylvania, then three years at Taylorstown, Washington County, Pennsylvania. In 1896 he located in Butler, Pennsylvania, and was in continuous practice there for many years.
