Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Standard History of Lorain County Ohio, Vol. 2: An Authentic Narrative of the Past, With Particular Attention to the Modern Era in the Commercial, Industrial, Civic and Social Development; A Chronicle of the People, With Family Lineage, and Memoirs Hon. David J. Nye. Through the last and most active forty years of his life during which he followed a constant, conservative and dignified career as lawyer, jurist and business man, David J. Nye has gained an eminence which probably has been surpassed by none and excelled by few in this community. His rise from the lowly farmer 's son to that of one of the foremost lawyers of the state, and one of the leaders in the civic and business life of Northern Ohio, was far from meteorical. It was accomplished only after years of close application and hard and consistent efforts in his chosen profession. While the early years of his life are not of important historical note, yet they were busy ones and served to make up that formative period when 'boys of that age create for themselves their ideals of life, and form them conceptions which direct their footsteps in after years. It was during this period that Mr. Nye conceived the idea of follow ing the law as a profession and he formed his ideals of all that this profession stood for and demanded. With these ideals firmly fixed in his mind, he clung to them, and each step in his life was in furtherance of his aim to attain to the heights on which his desires were set. N o matter what the endeavor cost him in work or denials, no matter what the sacrifice might be, he faced all in his hard struggle to reach his destined goal.
