He was reared at Franklin, PA, where his education was acquired in the public schools. He first found employment in the Hanna brickyard, where he remained but a short time, afterward clerking for two years before he began his apprenticeship at the plumber’s trade. He learned the business with his older brother John, who was a member of the firm of Clark & Bunce, entering their employ in 1882, the original firm was dissolved in 1887, after which he worked for his brother until the latter died, in 1899, after which time he continued the business himself. He built up a large patronage, and kept several men employed regularly, handling a large stock of plumbing and heating appliances and taking contracts for placing such work, a large share of the best local business coming into his hands. He was well known in fraternal circles as a member of the I. O. O. F. and Woodmen of the World, in which latter body he served some years in the capacity of trustee of the local organization. His religious connection was with the Presbyterian Church.
