Mr. Isaac Hines, a millwright for whom he worked, considered him a rare workman—he so readily comprehended the requirements of a job, and his work never had to be changed. And yet, he would not permit his sons to learn the trades they most ardently desired to learn; but made of them farmers—to their lasting regret."
