The two grandfathers of Mr. Whiting, Senior, Cotton Whiting, and Benjamin Whitmore, were soldiers in the Revolutionary War. Mr. Whiting was educated at public schools and became a farmer, residing successively at Goshen, Vermont; Hebron and Granville, New York; and Pawlet, Vermont, from I860 to his death there December 17, 1900.

Upon graduation he attended the Law School of New York University and completed the course in one year, being admitted to the bar in 1895, and becoming a partner in the law firm of Bodine, Grigley and Whiting of New York City. In September, 1903, he became associated with the firm of Townsend, Avery, and Button, which was succeeded in November, 1911, by the present firm of Avery and Whiting, of which he is still a member.
