The personal efforts and official life of the subject of this biography are so intimately blended with the development of the resources of Ohio, with its commercial and financial prosperity, and with the establishment and maintenance of its credit, that the following narration will necessarily include much of these departments of the history of the State. Mr. Kelley's mental characteristics, and particularly his originating talent, were such, that even when he was associated with others his seemed to be the controlling mind, and he alone was held responsible for results.

Alfred Kelley was born in Middlefield, near Middletown, Connecticut, November 7th, 1789.
