Gin 1880 he went to Oregon and set
tied near Condor, and there married
ten years later Miss Anna Clark, a
Vermont school teacher. During his
residence in the West, his rise from
poverty to wealth was very rapid, and
has been looked upon by his friends as
a business romance rivaling tales OF
adventure. He became rancher, bank
er, business man and one OF the
wealthiest men in Oregon. At the
time OF his death, he was president OF
the First National Bank of Condor;
