He worked at farming with his father in New Hamp- shire till he was 19 years old, when he bought his time and came to this town on foot, without money, and brought all his worldly effects in a small bundle. He worked at the currier's trade a short time with Joshua Barnard ; then learned the trade of making sale shoes, and worked for Mr. Oliver Ward at that business for two or three years, and then at cutting leather for him in his manufactory. He subsequently be- gan the business of manufacturing on his own account, and soon entered into a con- tract with Messrs. T. & E. Batcheller & Co. for the manufacture of russet brogans, which he continued several years to the advantage of both parties. In this business he accumulated a handsome property which he invested in real estate ; the present " Batcheller House " being built by him for his own residence. Closing his contract with Messrs. Batcheller, he again manufactured for himself; later he became inter- ested with his son-in-law in Chicago; sold his real estate here, went west, and ulti- mately settled in Detroit, where he died Aug. 31, ISSI. He was a man of great in- dustry and perseverance, and will long be remembered here by the numerous build- ings and improvements in real estate which he left behind, - monuments of his taste and enterprise.
