His father had removed to the South from Penn- sylvania after the Revolutionary War, but at the time of the slavery agitation in North Caro- lina removed to Greene (new Jersey) County, Ill. Stephen V. White passed his early years in the frontier wilderness. The first direct pay he ever received was for skins sold to the Ameri- can Fur Company, in 1847. Two years later 'he entered the preparatory school of Knox Col- lege. He graduated from this college in 1854. After teaching school for a while he went to St. Louis, and became a bookkeeper in the wholesale boot and shoe house of Claflin, Allen & Steinde. In 1855 Mr. White began the study of law, entering the office of Brown & Kasson. and a year _later was admitted to the Bar. He began practising law in Des Moin-es in 1856, and won immediate success. In 1865, however, he decided to enter commercial life. and formed a part- nership in the banking business with Mr. Marvin, who retired from the firm two years later. Mr. White continued alone until 1882, when the firm of S- V. White & Co. was formed, with Arthur Clafiin and Franklin W. Hopkins. Mr. White has been a member of the Stock Ex- change for more than twenty years. In 1886 he was elected a member of Congress from the IIId New—York Congress District on the Republican ticket. Mr. White has been treasurer of Plymouth Church, of Brooklyn. for many years. He was the first president of the American Astronomical Society, serving for five years.
