Soon after retiring from the " American," Mr. Warren left Manchester for Sioux City, Iowa, then in its infancy. Its people, largely from New Hampshire, had offered a liberal bonus to whoever would start a newspaper there, and Mr. Warren went thither to secure it. He was joined at Dubuque by his former partner, General Abbott, and with several others journeyed in the month of April across the State of Iowa in a " farmers' wagon " which had been driven from Indiana by one Phil. Clark, an intimate friend of Abraham Lincoln in his early life. This

APPENDIX.
trip occupied ten days, and Mr. Warren found himself too late to secure the prize he had traveled so far to obtain. A printer from the office of the Cincinnati "Gazette " had preceded him by several weeks, and was nearly ready to add to journalism the " Sioux City Eagle." After getting the business well started, he arranged with Mr. Warren to run the establishment a few weeks, that he might return and settle up his affairs in Cincinnati. The paper prospered so well in his hands that the owner prolonged his absence till the spring of 1858. Upon his return, Mr. War- ren's friends proposed to buy the "Eagle " establishment and make him a present of it. But the owner refused to sell, and Mr. Warren returned to Manchester.
Not long after, he received a flattering letter from the mayor of Sioux City proposing that if he would join a party about to establish the town of Yankton in Dakota, and start a paper there, they would bear all expenses, and closing with the urgent words, "Come ! Come! Come!" But the boy (for he was yet a minor) had already fully satisfied his ambition in the direction of pioneer life, and declined the offer.
In October, 1858, he went to Andover, Mass., where for nearly eight years he was connected with the widely-known Andover house, one of the oldest book-printing establishments in the country. For six years he managed the printing department and edited the " Andover Advertiser." His health failing, in the spring of 1866 he removed to Burlington, Iowa. The climate proving salutary, he entered upon mercantile life in company with Parsons and Berry, wholesale dealers in stoves and tinners' stock. Coming East twice a year to purchase goods he became favorably known among tin-plate importers, and in 1873 was induced to become the agent of Richards & Co. of Boston, and represented them in the larger western cities for several years.
Among the tin-plate importers and metal dealers of the country only two command the highest rating on the agency books : - Phelps, Dodge & Co. of New York, the largest house in the world in this line of trade, and Fuller, Dana & Fitz of Boston. After declining an unsolicited offer from the former, on account of the field of labor contemplated, Mr. Warren accepted a posi- tion with the latter house August, 1876, and continues to represent them in the West, with headquarters at Chicago. In 1882 he

visited Europe in the interest of his house, and again in 1885. He commands the largest business ever done in the West by a Boston metal house. Like many other sons of Rochester, in various fields of labor, he is doing credit to himself and his native town.
Charles Green Warren is the son of Joseph and Olive Biek- ford (Hurd) Warren of Rochester, where he was born September 24, 1837. June 11, 1860, he married Harriet Elizabeth, daughter of Francis and Eliza Marden of Manchester. Their children are Charles Lincoln, Harriet Alice, Abbie Gertrude, and Clara Clarinda.
