Charles Volney Dyer Pop-up Pedigree Death*: UNKNOWN Parents:
Charles Volney Dyer , Dr. Pop-up Pedigree Note*: Dyer, Charles Volney, abolitionist, was born June 12, 1808 Clarendon,VT.He removed in 1835 to Chicago, and soon became acting surgeon inFortDearborn. He was successful in his practice and businessadventures,retiring from the former in 1854, and becoming agent for the undergroundrailroad in Chicago. He died April 24, 1878 in LakeView IL. REF: Encyclopedia of America Biographies p 324. ========================================= For the first fifteen years of the life of Mr. Dyer he lived on hisfather's farm in summer and attended the district school in winter. Atthis age he went to the Castleton (Vermont) Academy, where he fittedhimself for a higher course of study. He entered college at Middlebury,from which he graduated with honors in the middle course in 1836. Hebegan the practice of medicine at Newark, New Jersey, where he achievedenough local success to make him ambitious for a broader field in whichto try his talents and exercise his industry. Like other aspiring youngmen of his time he cast longing eyes toward the new West, and finallyresolved to take the trip and trust his fortune with the destinies ofChicago, where he arrived in August, 1835. He married Miss Louisa M.Gifford, of Elgin, in 1837. The couple were blessed with six children,three of whom survive. Dr. Dyer upon his arrival was appointed surgeonof old Fort Dearborn, at Chicago, and from that time his practice grew tosuch an extent that he had money to invest. With the infinite faith inthe future that has characterized Chicago, he purchased a large amount ofreal estate, then outside of the corporation. Among other spots once hisproperty is the lot now occupied by the First National Bank building,which he sold to the government--the old post-office--for $46,000. In1854 he had acquired a competence and retired from the practice of hisprofession and determined to pass the remainder of his life in the careof his considerable property. Dr. Dyer was a Democrat when he first cameto Chicago, and was elected by the Legislature to the office of Judge ofthe Probate Court of Cook county in 1837. He soon became a leadingAbolitionist of the first water, and to say that he was not very radicalon all questions relating to human slavery would be putting a lowestimate upon the idea of his right of the poor bondsmen in Chicago. Dr.Dyer supported Mr. Birney for President in 1844, when there were but fewLiberty party men in Illinois. But they had an underground railroad, andmany of the passengers called upon Dr. Dyer and the late James H.Collins, who were understood to be the proprietors, passing through thosethat were fleeing from their task-masters in the South to the land offreedom in Canada. While these men stopped with the doctor he tried tomake them useful by setting them to work, but he said they were more fondof preaching than cutting and splitting wood. The doctor used to carry alarge ebony gold-headed cane (now in the collection of the ChicagoHistorical Society), which was presented to him by his admirers, as itwas said, for enlightening the slave-catcher after the manner in whichMinerva was freed from the skull of Jupiter. The doctor was very proud ofthis token, which he regarded as Jacob's staff for freedom. About thetime he received this present--1846--a runaway slave was arrested andtaken before the late Justice Kersheval, a native of Kentucky, who hadissued a warrant for his arrest under the old fugitive slave law. J. H.Collins appeared for the defense, and moved to quash the writ, which wasdone. While new papers were being prepared for the re-arrest of theslave, Dr. Dyer was left alone with the handcuffed slave for a moment. Hestruck off the irons and bade the man jump for dear life. In a moment theothers returned, and on inquiry for the slave the doctor said, 'He hassunk into the bosom of the community.' This was the kind of timber thatsuch men as Dr. Dyer and J. H. Collins were made of in the anti-slaveryagitation in the Northwest from 1840 to 1856. At an anti-slaveryconvention held in Chicago, it was resolved to start an anti-slaverypaper in Washington, D. C. Dr. Dyer was made chairman of the committee,and selected Dr. Baily, a noted abolitionist and writer, as editor, withJohn G. Whittier and Mr. Phelps as assistants. This was the beginning ofthe 'National Era.' one of the most noted anti-slavery papers everpublished in the United States. In 1863 President Lincoln appointed himjudge of a 'mixed court' for the suppression of the African slave trade,an international tribunal, holding its sessions in Sierra Leone, Africa.In consequence of this very appropriate honor he spent two years abroad.When not in Africa, he traveled quietly with his family in Switzerland,Germany and Italy. He chanced to be in Rome when the sad news of thedeath of Lincoln fell on the world, and he was chosen to make an addressin memory of his dear friend. In religious belief the doctor was afollower of Swedenborg, having embraced the tenets of the Scandinavianviews of this philosopher in 1854. Soon after this, he and his wife, inconnection with the Hon. J. W. Scammon and Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Wheeler,founded the New Jerusalem Society of Chicago. The great fire in 1871 andthe panic greatly straightened Dr. Dyer's circumstances, and his earlypecuinary means were nearly exhausted at the time of his death. He was avery peculiar man in the fullest sense of that expression. No one who hasever known him well could ever forget him. He loved a joke so well, thatif he had had the chance, like Hood, he would have made his pun even tohis last breath. It is impossible to do his varied character justice ina brief notice like this. But he will always be remembered in theNorthwest as one of those vigorous men who braved the perils of the oldpatriarchs to build an empire upon a wilderness, and who held the mostprofound political convictions, not for personal glory, but that he mightfulfill the promise of American freedom and raise a fallen race to theplane of humanity.
