He was a mercantile clerk in Brattleboro VT, then went into business on his own in Bath, NH, "and later at Norwich, VT, whence he removed in the winter of 1856-7 to Rochester, NY, when he engaged in banking. Overtaken by the financial storm of 1837, he closed his business and returned east in 1838, and after a brief sorjourn in Worchester, MA, took up residence at Springfield, MA in Feb of 1839. There he was engaged for several years in commission and real estate business. Attracted by the opportunity for profit offered at Bellows Falls, VT, he built and equipped an hotel called the "Island House" which burned the night of its completion, but at once rebuilded by him and is now standing on the island formed by the Connecticut River and the canal. It was intended that he should go to Dartmouth College, where his uncle Roswell Shurtleff was professor, but his tastes were for trade. He was for a time colonel on the staff of the governor of Vermont, and died while on a visit to his cousin, Mrs. Joseph Emerson at Hanover, NH.
