He was one of the earliest set- tlers in Downie, having come there in 1839 and did his share in clearing and opening up that fine township. He was a well-informed, public-spirited and enterprising citizen, ever foremost in every good work tending to advance the moral and material interests of the community ; a considerate, and obliging neighbor and a generous, steadfast friend. Seven or eight years 'ago he sold his fine farm, and retired to the enjoyment of leisure and comfort, the fruits of an industrious, well -spent life, but death claimed him as one of its victims and snatched him away from ,a happy home and a wide circle of rela- tives and friends.
