In 1855 he established himself in the furniture business at Tarentum, Pennsylvania, where he remained two years, and in 1887 engaged in the same business in connection with undertaking, at Clarion, and conducted the business there with success, carrying at the time probably the largest and most complete stock in his line in Clarion county.
