Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Historic Homes and Institutions and Genealogical and Personal Memoirs of Worcester County, Massachusetts, Vol. 1: With a History of Worcester Society of Antiquity
Worcester, which city has ever since claimed him as one of her most honored citizens. Among his legal associates were Hon. Emery Washburn and later with Hon. Charles Devens and J. Henry Hill, Esq. Mr. Hoar rapidly rose to a very eminent rank in his profession. The native genius of his mind, well disciplined by a thorough educational training, and augmented by an uncommon energy, he steadily moved forward and became a recognized leader. In 1869, when he entered congress, after twenty years at the bar, his legal practice was the largest of any west of Middlesex county and the most valuable in a financial point of view.
