Not long after their marriage the health of her hon- ored father began to fail, and in August, 1855, occurred his death. Abbott Law- rence was born in Groton in 1792, the son 3 of Major vSaimiel Lawrence. From the father lie iuherited an integrity and loy- alty to principle which made the latter eminent during the years of the American Revolution. Abbott and his older brother, Amos Lawrence, when young men, came to Boston, and in a modest way began business, having served apprenticeship with ol...der firms.
In 1814 their place of business was at No. 15 Market street (now Cornhill), "on the north side of the alley leading down the steps to Brattle Street Church. " After- wards the firm removed to No. 11 Liberty square, and soon to " Lawrence Block, " on Milk street. By 1830 this mercantile house ranked with the ablest and best. Their in- terests reached rapidly towards the cotton mills of Lowell and Lawrence, which from that time forth have been famous. Amos Lawrence retired early from active busi- ness, and after many benefactions to Wil- liams and other colleges, died in December, 1852; and his son, Amos Adams Lawrence, with Lawrence business sagacity, after a training at Harvard College, became a captain of industry and an ardent lover of education and of human rights.
