editSTEPHEN H. WENDOVER OF COLUMBIA. Senator Wendover was born at Stuyvesant, Columbia county, July 23, 1831, and received an education mainly in the common schools of his district and in the Kinderhook Academy. He en- gaged in early manhood in the commission and forwarding busi- ness, at which he amassed a competency and is now following the vocation of a farmer.

His only previous public service was in the Assembly in 1867 and 1868, being elected successively by his Republican constituents. In 1877 he was chosen to his pres- ent position as Senator from the Eleventh District over Charles Wheaton, the Democratic candidate, by a majority of 1,684. He is Chairman of the Committee on Banks, and a member of the committees on Railroads, Insurance and Grievances.
