    "After his mother died in 1880, he bought the interests of the other heirs in the old farm of his great-grandfather, but lived on it only a year after he married. In 1851, he went to North Scituate to learn the trade of a mechanic in a machine shop, and then about 1863 moved to Burrillville where he was foreman of a machine shop. About 1868, he moved back to North Scituate, where he rented the shop in which he had learned his trade. In 1873, he made arrangements with the Draper Company of Hopedale. He built a factory in Hopedale and made certain parts of cotton and woolen machinery. This factory was burned in 1901. His three oldest sons were in business with him from about 1885 until the fire. He was a deacon of the Congregational Church at Milford." (Stukely Westcott, Vol. 2, Pg. 265, 1939)
