N. LOAR, M. D., Bloomington. Dr. Loar is a native of Greene Co., Penn., and was born April 1, 1840. He began the study of medicine under Dr. J. Loar, then of Mount Pleasant, Penn., but now a resident of Bloomington. During the winter of 1864-65, he attended the Physio-Medical College of Cincinnati; practiced medicine during the summer of 1865, and, during the winter of 1865-66, he again attended lectures at the College; summer of 1866, he spent his time in practice, and, in the winter of 1866-67, he again attended college, graduating in the spring of 1867. He spent the summer of 1867 in practicing his profession in Knox Co., Ohio, and in the fall of the same year removed to Bloomington, where he has since resided, giving his time and attention fully and exclusively to his profession. He came here young and a stranger, and, being naturally of an unassuming nature, the future sometimes looked dark; but, being a gentleman as well as a thoroughly well-read physician, his practice gradually increased, as did also his circle of friends, until now, by his close attention to business, he has a fine practice and a host of warm friends, some being of the poorer class, to whom he has been a friend in many cases of need.
