  JOHN T. STUART, prosecuting attorney of Cumberland County, and of the 
firm of Stuart & Stuart, attorneys at law, Carlisle, was born in South 
Middleton Township May 23, 1851, son of Joseph A. and Mary A. (McCune) 
Stuart, worthy people of a very long line of descent in this locality.  
Mr. Stuart spent two years in Susquehanna College, and, after a short 
time at West Nottingham Academy, Md., entered Princeton in 1870, from 
which institution he was graduated in 1874.  He then entered upon the 
study of law, and was admitted to the bar in 1876, and in 1883 was 
elected to his present incumbency, which he very creditably fills.
