BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES.
PHINEAS TAYLOR BARNUM.
Phineas Taylor Barnum was born in the town of Bethel, Fairfield Co., Conn., July 5, 1810. He is the son of Philo Barnum, and grandson of Ephraim Bar- num, who was a captain in the war of the Revolution. He commenced his education at the district school at an early age, and worked at farin labor during the summer season and attended school in the winter. As he grew older his aversion to farm labor became inanifest in various ways, and his father finally estab- lished a store in Bethel, installing him as clerk. On the 7th of September, 1825, his father died, leaving his mother and five children, of whom Phineas T., at fifteen years of age, was the eldest. He was trusted > for a pair of shoes to attend the funeral of his father, · thus starting in life with one pair of shoes less than 1 nothing. Upon the settlement of the estate it was found to be insolvent, and P. T. was left without a
cent, having loaned the little sum he had accumu- lated to his father. He then entered the employ of a mercantile firm at Grassy Plain as clerk, at six dollars per month, where he remained about one year, and then went as clerk in a grocery-store in the city of Brooklyn.
He remained there about one year and then opened a porter-house on his own account, which he con- tinned but a few months, when he accepted an offer as clerk in a similar establishment at 29 Peck Slip, New York. In the following year he returned to his native town, and with a capital of one hundred and twenty-five dollars established a retail fruit and con- fectionery store.
In 1829 he opened a lottery-office in Bethel, -lot- teries at that time being legal in the State,-with branch offices in Danbury, Norwalk, Stamford, and Middletown, and did a large business. He soon after tried his hand as a book-auctioneer, and in 1831, with his unele, Alanson Taylor, opened a country store in Bethel, which they continued but a short time, and he then embarked in an enterprise which eventually gave him great notoriety. This was the founding, Oct. 19, 1831, of the Herald of Freedom. He entered upon the editorial management of his paper with all the vigor and vehemence of youth, and frequently laid himself open to the charge of libel. Three times in three years he was prosecuted, and finally a judgment of one hundred dollars was obtained against him and sixty days in the common jail. He fared well while in jail, had a good room, lived well, edited his paper as usual, and at the elose of the sixty days the event was celebrated by a large concourse of people from the surrounding country. An ode, written for the occasion, was sung, speeches delivered, and Mr. Bar- num was conducted to his home by a band of music and a large procession of the citizens, amid the firing of eannon and the cheers of the multitude. In 1834 he sold his paper and removed to New York, where he was employed for a short time as a "drummer" for several stores, and, in May, 1835, opened a private boarding-house, at the same time purchasing an in- terest in a grocery-store.
