of years a contractor in this city and built the ***** [first?] house

he retired several years ago from active business, but was associated 
with his son-in-law in the lumber business, being interested in the 
Kittanning Point Lumber company. He was a veteran of the civil war, 
having enlisted and served nine months in the Twelfth Pennsylvania
