the Mount Pleasant Mills. In 1848 he moved with his family to Jefferson county, at the Douthers, near Bank creek

and engaged in farming for a period, but later resummed milling operations aT Sportsburg, Pa., where he

conducted a mill for some time. Still later he moved to Indiana county taking charge of the Samuel Good mill, in

the formation of the republican party he gave it principles and canidates his hearty and effective support. Early in
