Nine years were then spent at Santa Barbara, Cal., where he became a well-to-do farmer, and in the Centennial year he settled in the Salt River valley, buying a quarter section of land adjoining Phoenix. After several years profitably spent in farming and stock-raising here he laid out Linville, the first addition to Phoenix, and from that time until his death, in July, 1893, continued in the real estate business. Several terms he filled the office of county supervisor, and in every way nobly met the obligations of citizenship. He was identified with the Christian Church and with the Masonic order.
