Wriley Pearce married Miss Barbary A., daughter of Isham and Martha Vincent, January 25th. By her he has had five children.
Mr. Pearce is energetic in a marked degree ; systematic in his looking after his business interest ; independent in his views on all subjects, and outspoken in their declaration. His personal identity is peculiarly his own, accepting no mod- el but marking out his own course. Possessed of quick percep- tion and sound judgment he is of those who compel success.
