He has added to his original purchase from time to time til his farm has increased to 640 acres. He has been very successful in raising grain and buying and shipping stock, having begun life a poor man, and by his own industrious habits and persevering energy has acquired a well-cultivated and well-stocked farm, his labors being attended with much more than average success. Beside his home farm he owns much valuable town property. He owns part of the brick block in Seymour known as the Lewis Block, also the postoffice building and the grain elevator at this place.
