He was a successful farmer in Westminster, but having lost his property by an unfortunate endorsement, he afterward pursued his calling in adverse conditions. He lived for a time in Fitchburg, Mass., later in the part of Mason which is now Greenville, and came to New Ipswich in 1841. After a brief residence near the Temple line,(52, N. D.,) and also a little westward from the "North schoolhouse,"(XV: 1, S. R.,) he settled on the "Sylvester farm,"(90, A. D.,) where he passed his remaining years.
