He entered the race to reach the goal. Success in honorable business was the end he sought. That end he attained by wise foresight, just means, unflagging endeavor, and unimpeachable character. His large acquisitions, the manner, time, and place of his invest- ments, attest a superior order of judgment. The steady increase in the rewards to his industry indicates the possession of a mind which could and did grasp all the conditions of success. His eminent prosperity was not a result of chance. ...He had it because he deserved it ; because his plans and courses of action by an inevitable law gave it to him. As time passed arid his means increased, his operations were largely diversified. He was a merchant, banker, and lumberman. He invested in timber-lands, both East and West, in mining, insurance, banking, and railroads. Maine has not alone witnessed his achieve- ments. In 1854 he commenced the purchase of timber-lands in Minnesota and Wisconsin, and with others erected a mill for the manufacture of lumber at Stillwater, in the State of Minnesota.
