He was the drummer boy model in Archibald Willard's painting SPIRIT OF `76. He made his greatest contributions to harness racing. He invested in horses, winning over 3,000 cups and ribbons and accumulated 14 records. In 1895 he organized the Gentlemen's Driving Club of Cleveland, which competed with other clubs, professionalizing the sport and focusing attention on Cleveland. (bio by: Joyce)
