period of fifty years has been actively engaged in the manufacture of 
carriages.  He began the business in 1844, and located in Little Falls in 
1850.  His business life has been a pronounced success.  He owns the large 
brick block on the corner of Mary and Main streets, where his factory is 
located, as well as a handsome residence on Mary streeet, and other valuable 
property.  Mr. Benedict takes an intelligent interest in public affairs, and 
has served on the school board twelve years successively, and nine years on

five years before the introduction of machine-made vehicles, and has shipped 
his carriages all over the Union and into Europe.
