He entered into law in 1752 and joined in partnership with William Livingston and William Smith Jr. The three young lawyers, all graduates of Yale and members of the Presbyterian Church, formed what was known as a “triumvirate” and published essays railing, among other things, against the Anglicans and their desire to establish an Anglican College in New York. In 1754, the triumvirate and friends founded the New York Society Library which remains active to this day. Scott served as a Brigadier General during the Revolutionary War. After the War, he was a delegate to the Continental Congress and the first New York Secretary of State.
