°63—At the Republican State Conven-
tion in New Haven on Thursday, Sept.
15, the Hon. George E. Lounsbury
was nominated for Governor. “George
E. Lounsbury, republican candidate for
governor, was born in Poundridge,
Westchester County, N. Y., where his
parents, Nathan and Delia Schofield
Lounsbury, were temporarily living in
1838. His father moved to Ridgefield
in this State in a few months, and
Senator Lounsbury has lived upon the
homestead ever since. He was edu-
cated in the district schools and at
the age of seventeen taught school and
until he entered Yale College, from
which institution he graduated in 1863.
He graduated from the Berkeley Divin-
ity School in Middletown in 1866 and
had charge of Episcopal parishes in
Suffield and Thompsonville. He was
obliged to give up the clerical profes-
sion owing to an affection of the throat
and entered upon a business career in
the manufacture of boots and shoes
with his brother, ex-Governor Phineas |
C. Lounsbury, and is still connected
with that business in the firm of Louns-
bury, Mathewson & Co., at South Nor-
walk. Mr. Lounsbury had never as-
pired for public office, but in 1894 he
was nominated for senator from the
Twelfth district and was elected in a
usually close district by over 1,300
majority. He was Chairman of the
Finance Committee of the Legislature
of 1895. In 1896 Senator Lounsbury
was renominated for the senatorship
and was elected by over 2,700 majority,
running ahead of the McKinley presi-
dential electors in the district. He was
Chairman of the Committee on Humane
Institutions and presided over the
hearings in the well known reformatory
matter, and in the matter of the oral
instruction for deaf connected with the
Mystic School. Senator Lounsbury
was married in 1894 to Mrs. Frances
Josephine Whedon, daughter of Joseph
J. Potwin of Amherst. He lives the
life of a well-to-do farmer and is well
known for his kindly aid to the unfor-
tunate in his locality.”

*78—In the Republican State Conven-
tion at New Haven, September 15,
John Addison Porter received 120 votes
for the nomination for governor.
George E. Lounsbury, ’63, received
350 and was nominated on the first
ballot. Ex-Secretary of State Charles
E. Searls of Putnam, who was the
especial representative of Mr. Por-
ter in the canvass, said to a Hartford
Courant reporter, after the battle, that
he was much disappointed in the vote.
He had not expected a victory, but had
looked for at least 200 votes out of the
504. As it turned out, there were only
120 for Mr. Porter. Mr. Searls said
he attributed the falling off from calcu-
lations to the printing of the letter in
Mr. Porter's paper on Wednesday
evening, which reflected on the intelli-
gence and character of the country citi-
zen. He said that caused an immediate
exodus, and, although Mr. Porter had
not seen the article and did not approve
of it, it made havoc with his following.
This was Mr. Searls’s explanation of

mate and vote. Mr. Porter, it is said,
was more confident before the con-
vention than were those in immediate
charge of his canvass.
