Doctor Cassius L. Campbell was born in Venango county, Pennsylvania, August 22, 1856, and is the son of John M. and Lavinia (Leitner) Campbell. He was reared in the place of his nativity, but attended the fine Grove academy, Mercer county, and Westminster college, at New Wilmington, Lawrence county, where he remained one year. He then commenced the study of medicine with a Doctor J. J. Wallace, of New Castle.
