Boughton, being an ardent advocate of prohibition^ was nominated by the Prohibition party, in 1888, for the office of attorney-general of Colorado. Personal note by one familiar with all the details : " Jay H. Boagbton was born at Moravia, Cayuga Co., N. Y., Dec. 38, 1649, and received his primary and classical education at the public school and academy there, and at Groton, Tompkins Co., N. Y. He studied law in the office of Wm. W. Hare, Groton, Tompkins Co., N. Y., and Bouton & Chap- lain, Cortland, N. Y., where he finished his legal studies, and was admitted to the bar June 8, 1870. at the general term of the Supreme Court at Binghamton, N. Y. Practiced law two years in Cortland, and then removed to Fort Col- lins, Larimer Co., Col., where he has resided till present writing, about Gfleea years, during which time he has held offices of responsibility and trust, embracing county attorney, county Judge six years, president of the board of education for ten years, and alderman and member of city council six yean. Jav H. Boughton. BOUTON-BOUGHTON FaMILT. 61 in M of which he may be said to haye been honorably and financially sne- ceasfnl." The following article, clipped from the Fort Collins " Courier," tells of the estimate in which Hon. Jay H. Boughton is held by his townsmen : " That the people of Fort Collins, Col., appreciate Judge Boughton's zeal- ous efforts in behalf of the schools, was happily demonstrated at the school elecUon held on Monday last, when he received all the votes cast for president of the school board. It was a handsome compliment to a competent and most worthy official. There are few men, comparatively speaking, who possess all th«^ requirements of a first-class school officer. Judffe Boughton has repeat- edly demonstrated that he is one of that few, a fact that the people recognize ana fully appreciate. Though disinclined for personal reasons to serve an- other term, he gracefully yielded to the urgent and earnest solicitation of friends and patrons of the school and consented to the use of his name for re-election." MS' IL Personal Notes of Clark Boughton (son of John W. and Sarah Henry Boughton), b. Preble, Cortland Co., N. T., July 29, 1851. He received a public school and academic education at Locke, Cayuga Co., N. Y., and at Groton, Tompkins Co., N. T., after which he learned printing and was for several years foreman of the GarUand County Demoerat. His health being poor, in 1871 he went west and remained nearly a year at Omaha, Neb., where he worked at his trade and studied law, and on account of continued ill health was compelled in 1873 to leave Omaha, and went to Colorado. He soon after settled at Fort Collins, where, seeing a prospect of rapid devel pment, he established The Fart CoUiiu Standard^ a weekly newspaper, in which he met with great success. Being himself a luminous writer, he was popularly recog- nized among the brilliant writers of his profession. He was elected super- intendent of public schools, which office he held until he died. He raised the standing of the public schools of the county to a degree they had never before attained, and inaugurated the system of teachers^institutos, the first in the state. Afflicted with asthma and rheumatism from childhood, his im- paired health broke down under the pressure of his intense application and effort, and he died at Fort Collins, Colorado, Oct. 26, 1874, having, by almost superhuman effort, resisted the inevitable culmination of his diseases for years ; by which it was felt that one of the brightest lights of Colorado had gone out at his death. 669 vi.
