    Elijah H. Matthews, one of the substantial lawyers of Cincinnati, was born
at New Vienna, Ohio, October 16, 1884, and educated in its public schools. His
professional training which was rigid and thorough was secured in the Cincinnati
Law School, from which he was graduated in 1905 with the degree of Bachelor of
Laws, and Yale University from which he was graduated in 1912 with the degree of
Master of Laws. Immediately thereafter Mr. Matthews entered upon a private
practice at Cincinnati, but later organized the firm of Matthews & Matthews
which still continues. While a student at Yale University he was made a member
of the college fraternity Phi Alpha Delta. A man with a keen sense of civic
responsibility he maintains membership with the Business Men's Club and the
Young Men's Christian Association. He is a Knight Templar Mason, York Rite. His
excellent business judgment has led to his being elected president of the
Hamilton County Bank on Woodlawn avenue, and this institution is progressing
under his executive control. During the period he has been a member of his
profession, Mr. Matthews has won the substantial reputation of being a close
student of the law and a painstaking, able and strictly reliable lawyer, and his
advice is sought by several prominent business concerns at Cincinnati and other
points in Ohio where he is well known.
