He graduated from Harvard College in 1852, and we believe was a classmate of the lamented Col. Paul Revere, who fell at Gettysburg. After graduation Porter studied law and was admitted to practice in the courts of the commonwealth of Massachusetts.

In 1861, when the Massachusetts militia was called to the defence of the capital, Porter was first lieutenant of the Light Artillery
