engaged in trade at the North village, in the store which then occupied the 
site of the present Walter Sargent house.  At the end of about four years he 
purchased what is now known as the Gage farm, at the south part of the town, 
and removed thither.  There he spent the remainder of his life.  He was 
possessed of many excellent qualities, and was much esteemed.  His two 
surviving sons, Joseph and Solon, early in life removed to Minnesota, where 
they have been very successful, and where they occupy good positions in 
business and society, and are influential and honored citizens.  Joseph has 
for several years been mail agent on the Northern Pacific R.R.   Solon 
Armstrong has severed the city of Minneapolis in several important offices.
