Godcharles (predecessor of the F. A. Godcharles Company). He next worked
for S. J. Shimer's Sons and then for the American Car & Foundry Company
at Milton, from which he changed to the Philadelphia & Reading Railway
Company and finally to the government employ, being engaged as
steamfitter for the war and navy departments. In 1894 he engaged in the
mercantile business at Milton, which he has since conducted. He is a
