The village school and the instruction of the village preacher in Latin and Greek afforded to the boy his early edu- cation, and at the age of sixteen he was sent to the high school at Ann Arbor, where he completed his preparation for college, and in due time entered the classical department of the University of Michigan, and graduated, with the de- gree of A. B., in the class of 1865. Dur- ing the presidency of lVIr. Cleveland, Mr, Ladd was United States Minister to Russia. He was admitted to the bar of Michi- gan, but immediately came to Kansas City and was admitted to the bar of Mis- souri by Judge Tutt in December, 1867, In April, 1869, he entered into partner- ship with John C. Gage, under the firm name of Gage 85 Ladd. In 1881 Mr. Charles E. Small became a member of the firm, which still continues. He was married, July 12, 1870, at Ann Arbor, Michigan, to Miss Clara L. Fuller, He has been the candidate of his party for Supreme ludge of the state, He is now the special counsel for the state in the Railroad Rate Cases. He has for years been counsel of the Kansas City Board of Education. He has been pres- ident of the Kansas City Bar Associa- tion, the Missouri State Bar Association. and was the first president of the Uni- versity Club of Kansas City. From this review of Mr. Larld's career may be gathered when :ind how he has acquired the ripe scholarship in law and in other departments of learning. It is enough to say of them that coupled with his zealous interest in his work he has won and held the high esteem, ad- miration and love of his successive classes of students.
