TIE LATE JUDGE PACKER.


HolU a Poor Connecticut Lad Became One
of the Richest Men IN Pennsylvania.
The GLOBE yesterday announced the death
of Judge Asa Packer, of Pennsylvania, at his
home in lMauch Chunk. His career is
somewhat remarkable. He was born in
Mystic, Conn.,, little village lying midway
between New London and Stonington.
From there, when about 16 years of age, he
journeyed on foot, with all his earthly pos
sessions done up in knapsack on his back,
to Snsquehanna county, Pa, where he ap-
prenticed himself to his uncle, carpenter.
In two or three years he had mastered his
trade, and came to New York to work at it:
but the city was not to his taste, and he re.
turned to Susquehanna county. At the age
of 23 he married Sarah M. Blakelee, the
pretty daughter of farmer, living in the
neighborhood. For four years the pair
earned only a scanty subsistence, young
Packer working small farm and doing odd
jobs at his trade. At the time of the open
ing of the Lehigh canal, in the spring of
1888, he became a canal boat driver. With
his earnings he gradually was enabled to buy
interests of his own in o number of boats,
and retaining these, he gave up driving, and
opened store and boat yard. Afterward
he contracted for the building of locks in the
upper Lehigh, andssoon his fame as a con-
| tractor became great throughout the
region. In 1888 he built boats at Pottsville
for the transportation of coal to New York
direct. In 1910, leaving his boat building
| business to his brother, Mr.. Packer removed
| to Mauch Chunk, and for many years en-
gagged in the shipment of coal. In 1852 he
alone began the building of the Lehigh Val
ley railroad. In 1855, when it was COM
pleted, he was all but ruined, but, aided by
Commodore Stockton, he survived his tenn
porary embarrassments, and his road re-
warded him to that extent that for many
years he has been accounted the richest man
| in Pennsylvania. Mr.. Packer was twice
elected to Congress, and served under the
administration of Mr.. Pierce. He built fo,
himself beautiful residence at Mauch
| Chunk, which was his home.
