He was a cobbler besides which he had a farm to work on. It is said that he was in the habit of promising to have shoes repaired sooner than he was able to finish them and that when they were called for and unfinished he would offer to deliver them. He always was saying on such occasions that he must hurry home, but on one such errand he was asked to stay a while to visit as they had not seen him for some time. He said he must return at once, but he kept visiting on and on and it is claimed that he stayed two full days.
