Dr. Jewett studied medicine with his father, and, for a year or two,
with Dr. Jeremiah Spofford of Groveland, Massachusetts. In the years 1831-2
he was a student in the medical department of Dartmouth College, under the
instructions of Drs. Mussey and Oliver. He received the degree of M. D.
from that College in 1835. In March, 1833, he settled in Lowell, Massachusetts, as
a physician. For many years he was special Coroner of the city of Lowell,
and in 1855 was a Representative of that city in the Massachusetts Legislature.
He was a fellow of the Massachusetts Medical Society, and for a considerable
time president of the Medical Society of Middlesex District.
