Edit ProfileCareer
After leaving College he began to read law, but from trouble with his eyes was led to engage in farming in his native town, which occupation he afterwards adopted. In 1848 he represented Wilton, Connecticut in the House, and in 1852 was appointed bank commissioner. He had already been for many years one of the directors of the Fairfield County Bank.
He died at his ancestral home in Wilton, Connecticut, December 1, 1883, in his 81st year, after a protracted illness.
