After the war he engaged in mercantile business in Warren, Pennsylvania, later retired, and devoted himself to fire insurance. In 1875 he was located in Philadelphia as special agent for two fire insurance companies, and in 1888 was elected vice-president of the Phoenix Fire Insurance Company, and removed to Hartford, Connecticut, where he now resides. He is also a director of the Mercantile National Bank of Hartford.
