PRESIDENT OF THE WESTERN UNION TELEGRAPH COMPANY. A Man 111 Whom Jay Gould Had Confi dence—On a Military Faculty With Blaine—Phjsician and Politician —From a Small Beginning to Affluence. LOUISVILLE, Feb. 13.—1)r. Norvin Green, president of the Western Union Telegraph 1 company, died in this city Sunday. Dr. Norvin Green and his wife three years ago celebrated their golden wedding at their handsome home in this city. He married in 1840, his wife being Miss Martha English, a daughter of Captain James W. English, who fought in the battle of Tip pecanoe and through the war of 1812 un der General William Henry Harrison. The English family then lived in Carroll county, and after the marriage Dr. Green, who had raised sufficient money to edu | cate himself by contracting to cut cord ! wood in Hunter's bottom, moved on the Kentucky side of the river, opposite Madi ! eon, Ind. He had been forced to do labor I because of the bankruptcy of his father, who lost his all by becoming surety 011 a guardian's bond. For the past 30 years the greatest part of his time has been spent in New York, but he has retained his citizenship in this city. In 1878 he removed his family to New York, bringing tti-m back in 1885. I)r. Norvin Green was born in New Al bany, April 17,1818. While a child his fam ily removed to this state, so that his early life was identified with and fashioned by his residence in Kentucky. His education was thorough rather than broad—studies which were suited to the professional life which he had mapped out. His preferences were in the direction of solid knowledge rather than a classic culture. With such tendencies, and after a thorough course of study under the able faculty of the medical department of the University of Louisville, he graduated in 1840 with honor. He soon entered upon a successful practice. Not long afterward he became physician of the Western Military academy at Drentieu's Springs, Ky., of which the late .James G. Blaine was at that time one of the junior 1 instructors. A Kentucky Politician. Like almost all young men of spirit in Kentucky, I)r. Green early connected him self with the politics of the state. He was elected for several terms to the Kentucky legislature and in 1853 was appointed com missioner of the United States in charge of the construction of the national building in Louisville. While enguged in the duties of his appointment he became one of the lessees of the United Morse and People's Telegraph line between Louisville and New Orleans, and becoming president of these interests, united in the name of the South ern Telegraph company, lie became identi fied with the history of the telegraph. In 1836, when the American, United States and Western Union lines were con solidated, Dr. Green was chosen vice presi dent, and with the exception of about three years, during which he accepted the presidency of the Louisville, Cincinnati and Lexington Railway company, he retained that office until January, 1873, when he re turned to duty as vice president of tho Western Union Telegraph company. It was during t his interim of three years that lie afterward entered the politics of the state and was waited upon by a delegation of the legislature and urged to accept the nomination for United States senator. It is said that he could have been elected but for a clerical error iu the count of tho nominating caucus. Dr. Green waselected president of the Western Union Telegraph compuny April 17, 1878.
