PETER F. EAGLE, M. D., one
of the leading medical practitioners of the city of Troy,
was born near the city of Dayton, Ohio, May 2, 1850, son of
David and Eliza (Reedy) Eagle. His father was
for many years a prosperous farmer of Montgomery County,
where he died in 1894, being followed to the grave by his
wife a year later.
The subject of this sketch was reared on the parental
homestead and laid the foundation of his education in the
district schools, where he proved himself a bright pupil.
In 1873 he became a student at Washington University, St.
Louis, Missouri, where he remained for a year, afterwards
taking up the study of medicine in the St. Louis Medical
College, where he matriculated Jan. 1, 1874. He was
graduated from that institution in March, 1878, and on June
3d of that year he opened on office for the practice of his
profession in Troy. He has since remained a resident
of this city and is numbered among its ablest professional
men, having built up a large and lucrative practice.
In polities he is a Democrat and takes an intelligent
interest in all public questions. Though devoting his
chief attention to his profession, his aid and influence are
not withheld whenever any public-spirited movement is set on
foot for the moral or material improvement of the community.
Fraternally he is connected with the Independent Order of
Foresters, the Ancient Essenic Order, and the Elks. He
also belongs to the Miami County Medical Association. He was
married Jan. 22, 1879, to Miss Mary Kline, of Troy,
Ohio. He and his wife are the parents of two children—Mayme
and Harry.
