At the age of fourteen years he entered Clarion Normal School, where he pursued a thorough course of study, and afterwards engaged with his brothers in the oil industry on the famous Titley farm. He also embarked in the breeding of fine horses, and later became a partner with his brother, John W., in the last mentioned business, which partnership existed until the fall of 1892.
