General Notes: Husband - Rev. Samuel L. Boston


His early life was spent on the farm of his father, except only the time spent at school. Beginning his higher studies under Dr. I. C. Ketler, at Grove City, Pennsylvania, he grad-uated in the academy in 1878, and thence he pursued his collegiate studies at Wooster, OH, where he graduated in June, 1883. In the fall of 1883 he entered his theological course at the Western Theological Seminary of Alle-gheny City, where he graduated in May, 1886. His first year after leaving the seminary was spent in supplying the churches of Cool Spring and Fredonia, in his native county. During this year he enjoyed a great outpouring of the Spirit on his work, and received about 100 members into the two churches. In July, 1887, he received a call to the Presbyterian Church of Sharpsville, which he accepted, and he is now settled pastor of that church, being ordained and installed at that place in September, 1887.
