for many years, up to the time of the COM
pletion of the Erie canal, when landing the
| last load of his river craft within the month

and egress to the "Geneseo Country"

At length he married the daughter of a

of farmer, occupying as owner for time,
the old farm on which he settled with Cap
tain Carr, who by the way had sold and
emigrated to Western Pennsylvania with a
large family of boys, to encounter for the
third time the wilderness, and open farm
and make home, where he now resides in
