The doctor is upholding most effectively the high prestige gained by his honored father in the medical profession, in which his success has been unequiv ocal and in connection with which he insistently carries forward the study and research that keep him in close touch with the ad vances made in medical and surgical science.

And Ellen (stanton) Ainsworth, both of whom were born and reared in the state of New York. The younger of the two children is Fannie L., who is the wife of Charles W.

There his father continued in active practice as one of the leading physicians and surgeons of that sec tion of the state, until 1914, since which time he has there lived virtually retired, though many of the families to which he long ministered with all of ability and unselfish devotion still insist upon having recourse to his counsel and professional attention. His cherished and devoted wife was summoned to eternal rest in 1903, secure in the affectionate regard of all who had come within the compass of her gentle and gracious in¿uence. At West Union Dr. S. C. Ainsworth was reared to adult age and after profiting duly by the advantages afforded in the public schools, including the high school, he became imbued with the earnest ambition of emulating his father in the choice of a career.
