He married Agnes Warner Mc- Clelland, a writer, of Cleveland, Ohio. and as their work developed it became necessary for them to remove from Chi- cago to the wider literary field of New York. The range of his work is from practical business stories of banking and mining for men to the thoughtful and leisurely narrative, or again to the fanci- ful.
