He remained there one year, when he removed to Lanesboro', in the same county, and studied laboriously at his profession for four years, at the end of which time he was considered qualified to commence practice as a lawyer in the courts and accordingly, in October, 1818, he was admitted to the bar of the Common Pleas. At this time he was twenty-two years old, and had been married six months before the completion of his studies.
