His com- pensation was found alone in the consciousness of duty performed. He uniformly declined to receive pay for any time or effort he was asked to give to the cause of his country. " From the close of the war until his death he devoted him- self to his business, and was one of the most important citizens of Louisville.
In 1867 he purchased a beautiful tract of land near the city, being a portion of the old Farmington tract, and there built a residence and beautified the place with trees, sh
...rub- bery and flowers. There he and his wife, to whom he was devotedly attached, lived over again, amid rural scenes, the earlier years of their married life.
With his ability as a business man he united other striking qualities. He was very public-spirited and engaged iu many enterprises affecting the public welfare. He was also fond of reading and a lover of good literature. The follow- ing extract from a letter to his wife gives an idea of the vein of poetic sentiment which was well known to those who knew him intimately : " Last evening as I sat upon the porch watching the sun set, as we usually do, I thought of you and wished for you.
