In 1840, he went into the silk business, and continued it until the year ot his death.
He had a remarkable taste for the study of medicine ; and it w'ould be difficult to find many of the medical profession to whom the subject was more familiar than to him. His jjreat recreation was to buy books. Beinij a devout chris- tian, it is not surprising that at least one fourth of his large library is composed of religious works. He was once asked if he thought it good economy to buy so man}' books. Hi
...s repl}' was that as he used no tobacco in any form, nor any intoxicating beverages, he considered the money that he put into books as saved by his non-indulgence. From his boy- hood, beginning with Humboldt's "C/Osmos, " hardly a day pas-*ed without his adding something to his collections. It was to him the pleasure of a life-time.
