Iowa till 1866, when he removed to Chicago and resided there ever since. For two years he filled a ohair in one of the law schools of Chicago. Subsequently he engaged largely in Chicago real estate. For several years he has been closely associated with E. H. Talbott, proprietor of the Railway Age, their wives being sisters. After the publication offlce of the Age was moved from Chicago to New York, Mr. Mverd was given charge of the Chicago office and has spent most of his time there in the interest of that journal, the largest of its class in the world. Mr. Talbott has a magnificent palace oar in which he and Mr. Myers, their families and friends, have been wont to travel all over the United States and to Canada and Mexico. On one of these jaunts they all visited Wilkes-Barre, where the oar attracted great attention. Five years ago the writer of this paragraph encountered them again at St. Paul, at which time Mr. Talbott was giving the Mexican editors a trip through the United States. Mr. Myers is survived by his wife and only child, Eliztbeth Vanderblit Myers. Mrs. Myers was Mary Isabella Cowen, of Ottawa, 111. He comes from an old and honored Wyoming family. His grandfather, Philip Myers, was one of the pioneer settlers. His grandmother was Martha Bennet, who was in the fort at the time of the massacre of 1778, but escaped. The following tribute is written for the Becobd by Dr. George Urquhart: The announcement yesterday of the death of Philip Myers at Chicago was a sad revelation to many a resident of Kingston and Wilkes-Barre. The Becobd gave an admirable narrative of his life and personality, and he seemed to have inherited the nature and qualities of a true friend and accomplished gentleman. He was descended from one of Kingston's...

This book was released on 2022-04 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Connecticut Yankees began to settle the Wyoming Valley in the 1760s, both the local Pennsylvanians and the powerful native Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) strenuously objected. The Connecticut Colony and William Penn had been granted the same land by King Charles II of England, resulting in the instigation of the Yankee-Pennamite Wars. In 1788, during ongoing conflict, a band of young Yankee ruffians abducted Pennsylvania official Timothy Pickering, holding him hostage for nineteen days. Some kidnappers were prosecuted, and several fled to New York's Finger Lakes as the political incident motivated state leaders to resolve the fighting. Bloody skirmishes, the American Revolution and the Sullivan campaign to destroy the Iroquois all formed the backdrop to the territorial dispute. Author Kathleen A. Earle covers the early history of colonial life, war and frontier justice in the Wyoming Valley.

Politically, he is in uential, but employs his in uence to the best ends, and quietly.

Also, he is a member of the Knights of Pythias, lodge of Nanticoke, and a communicant of the Methodist Episcopal Church.

During the World War, while somewhat too advanced in years for service in the military, he did serve, tirelessly and well, on the many boards and committees in charge of prosecution of the con ict from within this country, and was instrumental most' beneficially to the country in the Liberty Loan campaigns.
