Although comparatively young in years he has all the quali- fications of a thorough business man, a fact that is fully attested by the re- sponsible position he occupies in this establishment." On account of decline in health, caused by the arduous du- ties of his position, he severed his con- nection with this house and rested for a year; spending the time at Excelsior Springs, Las Vegas, N. M., Colorado Springs, Denver, Chicago and other cities. On November 1, 1891, he or- ganized the firm of Enright & Fair- leigh, composed of Albert J. Enright and J. O'Neil Fairleigh, dealers in bonds and stocks, which business was very successful. In May, 1894, Mr. Fairleigh retired from the firm to en- gage in the wholesale shoe business. The present firm of Albert J. Enright & Co., is the leading firm in St. Jo- seph in the buying and selling of bonds and stocks. Their business is national in character, extending from Portland, Me., to Portland, Oregon, and from St. Paul to New Orleans.
