It is not recorded that James showed any of his father's
inventive talent and he evidently had little taste for the
business, preferring the line of farming in which he was
eminently successful. In early life he was a soldier of the
war of 1812, and later became prominent in political and
religious activities. He died Dec. 5', 1870, leaving a numerous
progeny. Among his living descendants are Charles
