Mr’ Wheelock was treasurer and manager of the Putnam Woolen com- pany and was one of the successful | #nd influential business men of Put- nam. He was born In Uxbridge, Mass., “eb. 15, 1546, received his education in he common and high schools of his town and in Williston academy, East- hampton, Mass, which he aitended for a short period.
