He received his education in Conneaut and Painesville. His first business enterprise was that conducted under the firm name of Guthrie & Thayer, the firm being in the drug business two years. Then for three years he was Deputy Postmaster under M. B. Keyes, after which he was bookkeeper for S. J. Smith until the First National Bank was organized, since which time he has been cashier of the bank. He helped to organize the bank of Lake, Thayer & Smith, and afterward the First National Bank. He has been associated in business with Mr. Smith for the past seventeen years. In 1887 he established a livery business in Conneaut, and is still interested in the same, having begun on a small scale and from year to year increased his facilities until he now keeps twenty-six horses and a fine assortment of carriages and other vehicles. Since March, 1892, he has had a half interest in the Commercial Hotel of Conneaut; and Conneaut, by the way, boasts of the best hotel accommodations between Buffalo and Cleveland.
