Mr. Holmes' attention has been devoted solely to agriculture, in which pursuit he has been more than ordinarily success- ful, and now owns 1500 acres of improved lands, free from debt, in Peoria and Marshall counties. For thirty-two consecutive years, Mr. II. has filled some local office ; served five years supervisor from Medina ; has been assessor twelve years, which office he now holds, and was twice elected collector.

While ready to indorse every movement for the social and moral weal of society, Mr. II. belongs to no or- ganization of any sort.
