He pursued his legal studies under the tutelage of Horace Roberson, counselor at law, one of the leading lawyers of Bayonne, and at the New York Law School, and was admitted to the -New Jersey bar in 1895. Since then he has been actively and successfully engaged in the general practice of his profession in Bayonne. May 3, 1897, he formed a copartnership with William W. Anderson, under the style of Anderson & Farr, which still continues. In politics he is a Republican, and in religion a member of the Lutheran Church.
