In 1863 he went to Claremont, N.H., to continue the same business with him. In the fall of 1866 he removed to Bennington, N.H., where he ran a paper mill in connection with him till his death, in 1868, when the mill passed into the hands of Mr. Lyman PATCH, of Fitchburg, Mass. He leased an individual half of it from him and continued to run it till 1872, when he quit the paper business.

H., for the manufacturing of ground wood pulp, and ran that business in Bennington and Stoddard, N.H., five or six years. In 1858 he bought one section of Iowa land from the U.S. government, and has added till he now has 880 acres, which eleven years ago he began to improve, and has spent a share of his time there since; res.
