He was born in Vermont in 1822, went to Kentucky, entered the bar, and In 1849 was elected a member of a state constitutional convention. He went to South America in 1850, and in 1851 emigrated to California, where he became a member of the legislature. Returning to Kentucky in 1854 he was chosen as a member of the Cincinnati national convention in 1856, and was an elector in the ensuing presidential élection. He was ap- polnted receiver of public moneys n Washington ‘erritory, and filled that position from 1857 to 1860. From 1866 to 1869 he was surveyor gencral of Washington Territory,and afterwards represented it as a delegate in the Forty-first and Forty-second Congresses. After he left Congress his course of life seemed to have been chan; ‘He became the Teputed proprietor of a gaming room in this elty, and on one occasion a few years ago was brought before the Police Court, but no case could be made against him.
