When the did not have prosperity in mind because he was a single man and desired to find a place where he could live in greater comfort, He had no capital. His financial layout consisted in many instances of an axe and grubhook. “Often he was a type of man who did not want to work under one of superior cxecutive abllity and had visions of being an execu.
