a philanthropic New York merchant and iron manufacturer of our day, deserves a place here for his great efforts to advance the interests of his fellow-men. He founded in 1860 "The First Ward Industrial School;" later, a free reading-room, a library, and erected two churches for the benefit of his workingmen and their neighbors. He died February 9, 1869.
