Candee company was in it's infancy in Centerville. He worked first at mak- ing rubber boots and next cut patterns, but his business ability was soon ap- parent and in a short time he was pro- noted to be superintendent, a position which, as stated above, he held for for ty years. He resigned in 1893, retiring from business on account of his in creasing years. His age was seventy seven.
