Very soon after leaving the army he entered Columbia Law School and was
graduated with the degree of LL.B. He then began the practice of law in New York City,
at first on Nassau Street, later on Broadway, and now has an office at 120 Broadway, in the
Equitable Building, one story above the offices of Van Slyck, but I warn you not to try to
go from one office to the other without minute directions. The ways of some of the
skyscrapers are mysterious and past finding out.
To all appearances Winslow is a faithful, trustworthy, and conscientious lawyer. But
he is especially active and interested in the church of which he is a member, St. Agnes
Episcopal Church, Ninety-second Street, not far from Columbus Avenue, one of the
so-called chapels of Trinity Church, this latter parish being its founder and sponsor, where
Winslow is the leader of a flourishing Bible class.
December 30, 1872, our classmate married Miss Adelaide Amelia Mariotte. She died
in July, 1874, and six years later he married Miss Julia E. Curtis, daughter of Joseph and
Sarah Curtis, of New York City.
They have one child, a son, Archibald Spiers Winslow, born September 19, 1881. He
fitted for college at Trinity School, West Ninety-first Street, New York City, and won the
McVickar prize, given for highest general excellence and scholarly attainment. He was
graduated from Columbia University, in 1902, with Phi Beta Kappa rank. In the autumn
of 1902 he entered the General Theological (Episcopal) Seminary of New York. He looks
forward to the missionary service of his church as his life work.
Addendum on spelling as "Myron" or "Miron":
"In the sketch of Hawes, page 81, the first spelling is used, but this portion of the
report was in print before Mr. Winslow informed me that his father, after whom he was
named, always used the second spelling; so though he prefers the first, he decides to retain
the second form.
"I find no standard authority for this spelling."
