After attending the local schools for several years, our subject began work- ing on his father's farm, but farm life was irksome to one of his active type, so he went into the lumber business with his brother David M., and soon bought the latter out, continuing the business independently, and when his father died he succeeded to his real estate business. He discontinued the lumber business in 1892, on account of the increase of the real estate business. Being a shrewd and circumspect financier, he concluded to open a line of banks, so he established the first one at Wittenburg, Wis., in 1895, another at Manawa, Wis., another at Clin- tonville, Wis., in 1900, and still another at Bear Creek, Wis., in the same year. He also owned and operated a large cranberry marsh.

He also conducted to great ad- vantage, a saw-mill, which he purchased in 1904. In 1903 he pur- chased as a residence the mansion located at 3228 Wells street, one of the most beautiful homes in Milwaukee. In 1907 he disposed of all his numerous banks. On Nov. 23, 1880, he married Miss Addie A., daughter of Alfred K. and Sarah (Farmer) Butler, of Rubicon, Wis., their union being blessed with two sons : Alfred B., of Embarrass, Wis., where he conducts his father's lumber interest ; and Vincent G., who at Williams College, Williamstown, Mass., was graduated in June, 1908, he being chosen president of his class, which indicates his ability and popularity. Our subject died April 17, 1908, at Rochester, Wis. Mrs. Roberts' father was born at Schuyler, N. Y., Jan. 17, 1829, and her mother in New York state on March 5, 1829. He was a farm- er and came to Rubicon, Wis., in the forties and continued farming until 1889, when he moved to Riverside, Cal., where he purchased a large orange grove. His wife died Nov. 21, 1907. In religion our subject was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church, and he sub- scribed to the tenets of the Republican party. He was also a member of the Elks, the Oskosh Order and the Calumet Club. He was the first one of the ten brothers and sisters to die, and a beautiful floral tribute was sent by the survivors, consisting of a wheel indicating the family circle with one spoke out. He was a charitable man and besides many other minor contributions he donated liberally to the Y. M. C. A. and to Lawrence University. At his bier his life long friend. Rev. T. Williams, who spoke the last sad words over the silent form of the de- parted, said, among other things: "To rehearse his benefactions would take all afternoon and then not tell the whole story. He made friends everywhere and was one of Wisconsin's foundation builders."

BIOGRAPHICAL
How passing sad it is that such a man as Mr. Roberts, in the prime of his perfect manhood, with such a genius for successful and masterful achievement, should be called hence so untimely, to have the portals of the tomb shut him in from the world and from those who loved him so much. But "God's way is not onr way." Those of his loved ones who are left behind are blessed by the fragrance of his memory.
