Miller was an early traveler, a participant in pioneer activities and a pioneer lawyer in both California and Montana. For nearly thirty years his home has been in the Flathead Valley, and in recent years he has lived quietly at his home in Columbia Falls. He was born near the historic Town of Vincennes on the Wabash River in Indiana, a son of John and Mary (Kennedy) Miller. His early opportunities in school were limited, and the sound scholarship of his mature career has been due to a lifelong habit of study, reasoning and observation. When he was four years of age he lost his mother and was reared by an older sister to the age of thirteen. He then left home and wandered far before he came to the beautiful Flathead country He worked on farms in Michigan, in Michigan lumber woods, rafted timber down the Mississippi, and was a member of the Yellowstone Expedition under General Custer three years before the Custer massacre. In 1874 he was admitted to the bar at Glencoe, Minnesota, practiced law six years in that state, for two years was a lawyer in California, making a specialty of mining law, and next came to Montana and for seven years engaged in mining and law practice at Helena. Judge Miller came to the Flathead country in 1891 and continued his professional work and other interests until about ten years ago, when he established his family home in beautiful Glacier Park, filing on a homestead and proving up. He and his wife spend the summer months in that beautiful location. He married Miss Emma C. Wood, who was born at St. Charles, in Winona County, Minnesota, a daughter of J. G. and Millie (Brainerd) Wood. She was educated in the public schools of Minnesota and in the high school at Rockford, Illinois. The only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Miller was Mary Amelia, who was liberally educated in school and at home, was a teacher for two years at Kalispell, and when life was most promising for her soon after her marriage she died. Judge Miller was once a candidate on the populist ticket for judge in Flathead County. Beyond. that he has seldom considered politics as a serious field of his activities. He has been a favorite speaker on many occasions, and has also reduced many of his thoughtful studies to writing. A synopsis and abstract of some of his writings has been published in a small booklet entitled "After the War," and some of his discussions betray a very keen analysis of fundamentals that vitally affect the structure of civilization in America as elsewhere. The wedded life of Judge Miller has been ideal, and to an unusual degree they have been bound together by common sympathies and aims."
