He attended public schools in his native town until old enough to go to an academy, from which time until he was nineteen years old he attended different academies and taught school alternately. He had nearly completed his preparatory college course when he received an appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point, where he entered in 1844, and remained about two and a half years, standing, when he left fifth in his class in conduct, and eight in general standing. Among his school fellows there were George B. McClellan, Ambrose E. Burnside, D. N. Couch and Jesse L.
