In addition to the ordinary opportunities of the district school in his native town he attended Holmes Academy at Plymouth NH where for several terms he pursued his studies under the instruction of the late Samuel Burns who ranked among the foremost teachers of his time To perfect himself in mathematical studies for which he showed an early and natural aptitude he placed himself under the tuition of Master Dudley Leavitt the noted almanac maker who for many years opened an annual term of high school in Meredith where he taught all the advanced branches of mathematics to pupils who in that day flocked from every part of the country to place themselves at the feet of this great mathematical Gamaliel. These studies he ardently pursued far beyond the limits of the ordinary academical course and they seem to have impressed upon him a permanent proficiency often called for and manifested in the various large business transactions with which he has been connected for so many years. During the intervals of schools he assisted his father who was in trade and a large farmer as clerk and general assistant in his extensive business In 1831 at about the age of twenty he opened a store and commenced trade at Sandwich NH where he remained about a year when he returned and resumed the same business at Center Harbor.
