Stevens, 1921, S. J. Clarke Publishing Company, St. Louis, Chicago. Taylor Co. When the city boy crosses swords with the country lad in the struggle for ascendency, the odds are against him. There is something in the daily habits of the farm bred boy-the early rising, the necessity to make each blow tell-which develops in him a sturdiness and determination that count as most forceful factors in the world's work when coupled with persistency and laudable ambition. This statement finds verification in the life record of Hon. Granville Hogan, judge of the circuit court of St. Louis, who was born October 20, 1878, at Merrimac, Kentucky, a son of the late Thomas Hogan, who was likewise born in the Blue Grass state and belonged to one of its old families that was founded in Virginia about two hundred and fifty years ago. The family is of Irish lineage and representatives of the name participated in the Revolutionary war. With the western emigration the Hogan family became connected with the pioneer development of Kentucky, where Thomas Hogan was afterward a successful farmer and stock raiser and also engaged in the tobacco business. He passed away at Merrimac, Kentucky, February 8, 1896. He had been a stanch republican in politics and was very active in supporting the party in his state. He married Lydia Rhodes, a native of Merrimac, Kentucky, whose people had also settled in the state in pioneer times, coming from Pennsylvania and Virginia, the Rhodes family being of English descent. Mrs. Hogan is still living, making her home at Merrimac, where she reared her family of three sons and a daughter, all yet living. Judge Hogan was the second in order of birth. He was educated in the public schools of his native city and also through self-study, whereby he qualified for academic training and entered the Valparaiso University at Valparaiso, Indiana. He was there graduated with the LL. B. degree as a member of the class of 1902, but long before he had qualified for the practice of law he was earning his own livelihood. At the time of his father's death, which occurred when the son was eighteen years of age, Granville Hogan started out to provide for his own support. He entered the lumber business and was engaged at manual labor, not only providing for life's necessities but also thus securing the means for his education. On the completion of his law course he removed to Wilburton in the Indian Territory and there became principal of the public schools, occupying that position for two years. But looking ahead, he saw the vast opportunities for practice in a city and, resigning his school position, removed to St. Louis, where he took up his abode in May, 1904. Here he entered upon the private practice of law, 1n which he has continued most successfully. Advancement at the bar is proverbially slow and yet within a comparatively short time Mr. Hogan had won recognition as a lawyer of ability and power, well versed in the principles of jurisprudence and correct in his application of such principles to the points in litigation. During 1912 he became a member of the firm of Hogan & Blodgett. He served as assistant circuit attorney under S. B. Jones and was elected judge of the city courts in 1915, filling that position for a period of tour years. In November, 1918, he was called to higher judicial position in his election as judge of the circuit. court for a six years' term. The important events of life often hinge upon seemingly trivial circumstances. It occurred that in the course of his practice Mr. Hogan often had occasion to call at the office of Mayor Kiel, and one day on entering the mayor's room he was surprised to find him chatting with a most attractive young lady. He hastily started to withdraw, but Mayor Kiel called him back, saying: "Mr. Hogan, you are just in time, as I wish you to meet my daughter." The introduction proved the beginning of an acquaintance that soon ripened into a warmer feeling and on the 15th of November, 1909, Judge Hogan and Miss Henrietta Kiel were united in marriage in St. Louis. They have become the parents of three children Hortense, Muriel and Ardeth.

D. The profession of medicine has been notably prominent in the wonderful scientific discoveries of the past and present centuries. Through the bequests of men of large means trained medical men are concentrating their efforts in laboratories equipped with every possible adjunct for research and investigation, to the solving of the problems which so definitely concern humanity, its beginning, existence and end. Not every physician is granted these opportunities, however enthused he may be with professional zeal and ardor, but the discoveries which come to him and the achievements which are his in his consideration of daily practice are, perhaps, quite as creditable, and certainly they are frequent enough to demonstrate great ability. Since 1901 Dr. William Fayette Owsley has been numbered among the efficient physicians and surgeons of Cumberland County, and during that period has proved his skill as a professional man and his worth as a citizen of Burkesville, where he has always made his home. Doctor Owsley belongs to one of the oldest families of Burkesville, and was born at this place July 22, 1879, a son of William Francis and Sallie A. (Alexander) Owsley. His paternal great-great-grandfather, William Owsley, was a pioneer from Virginia to Burkesville in the early history of this community, and here was born the great-grandfather of Doctor Owsley, Dr. Joel Owsley, who was an early physician and surgeon and followed his profession here throughout his career. He was likewise an early believer in the Christian or Campbellite faith, and preached the doctrines of that church even before the arrival of Alexander Campbell. Dr. Joel Owsley married Mary Ann Lewis, who was born and died at Burkesville. William Francis Owsley, the elder, the grandfather of Dr. William Fayette Owsley, was born in 1812 at Burkesville, and was reared to mercantile pursuits, in which he was engaged until reaching his thirty-fifth year. At that time, in partnership with Fayette W. Alexander, the maternal grandfather of Doctor Owsley, he established a branch house of the Louisville Bank, which was conducted until into the '70s. When he severed his connection with this institution Mr. Owsley turned his attention to the brokerage business, and from that time forward concerned himself with the handling of mortgages, farms, etc. He married Mary Agnes Bledsoe, who was born in 1834 at Burkesville, and died in 1881. He survived her for many years and passed away while on a trip to Louisville, in June, 1908. William Francis Owsley, the younger, father of Dr. William F. Owsley, was born August 2, 1852, at Burkesville, and as a young man elected to make farming his life work. That he made a wise choice has been demonstrated in his subsequent career, for he has been a leading and successful agriculturist, and at the present time is the owner of a valuable property in Cumberland County. In addition to his general farming activities he was a raiser and handler of horses, having an extensive stock farm, and his horses, particularly the Red Squirrel breed, are known all over the United States. While somewhat retired from active pursuits, having reached the psalmist's three-score-and-ten years, he supervises his large enterprises and take a keen interest in business affairs, as well as in matters which affect the community life. He is a democrat in politics, but has never been an aspirant for public honors. Reared in the faith of the Christian Church, he has always been a liberal supporter of its movements. Mr. Owsley married Miss Sallie A. Alexander, also a member of an old and honored family of Burkesville, who was born here in 1852, and died in March, 19o4. They became the parents of the following children: Susie King, who died in 1916, aged thirty-six years, at Burkesville, the wife of Dr. John G. Talbot, a physician and surgeon of Burkesville, a sketch of whose career appears elsewhere in this volume; Dr. William Fayette, of this review; Mary Agnes, the wife of Dr. R. C. Richardson, a dental practitioner of Leitchfield, Kentucky; Grant A., a resident of Burkesville, who during the World war was stationed at Camp Taylor, subsequently was sent to other training camps, commissioned a first lieutenant, and was ready for overseas duty when the armistice was signed; and Helen, the wife of S. M. Young, vice president of the Bank of Cumberland, Burkesville. William Fayette Owsley attended the public schools and Alexander College, Burkesville, following which he entered Center College, Danville. He lacked only three months of graduation when ill health forced him to leave that institution, and upon his recovery entered the Hospital College of Medicine at Louisville, where he spent three years. Following this he pursued a course in the medical department of the University of Kentucky at Louisville, from which he was graduated in 19o1 with the degree of Doctor of Medicine. In that same year he graduated from the Louisville School of Pharmacy with the degree of Graduate Pharmacist. In 1902 he took two post-graduate courses at the University of Kentucky, one in the spring and one in the fall, specializing in diseases of women and diseases of children. Doctor Owsley began his practice at Burkesville in 1901, and since that year has built up a splendid practice. A man of unusual ability, he has always taken a progressive stand upon matters pertaining to his profession. Always devoted to his work, he is constantly endeavoring to add to his store of knowledge and widen his field of action. Having devoted so many years to his calling he has been liberally rewarded by the bestowal of confidence and the enjoyment of praise honestly won. Doctor Owsley is the owner of his modern residence and offices on Glasgow Street, one of the most desirable and comfortable homes in the city, an old Colonial brick structure. He is likewise the owner of a farm of 250 acres, part of which extends into the city limits, and carries on general farming and stock raising thereon. In politics a democrat, Doctor Owsley is a professional man rather than a politician, but has accepted the responsibilities of public office on occasion. In 1906 he was appointed a member of the Board of Town Trustees to fill out an unexpired term, and in the following year was elected to that post for a full term of four years. At the present time he is United States examining surgeon for Cumberland County, and formerly for six years was health officer of the county. He belongs to the Cumberland County Medical Society, the Kentucky State Medical Society and the American Medical Association, and is a deacon of the Christian Church. During the World war he was very active in local matters, being examining surgeon for the Cumberland County Draft Board, food administrator of Cumberland County and chairman of the civilian relief committee, in addition to helping every drive be put "over the top." With Mrs. Owsley he organized every local chapter of the American Red Cross in the county. On October 25, 1905, Doctor Owsley married at Lexington, Kentucky, Miss Annie Pearl Owings, a daughter of W. A. and Nannie (Rue) Owings, residents of Lexington, where Mr. Owings is a well known trotting horse owner, breeder and developer. Mrs. Owsley was graduated from the public schools of Danville, Kentucky, at the age of thirteen years, and four years later graduated from Caldwell College, now the Woman's College of Danville, with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. She took a postgraduate course at the Kentucky State University, and finally pursued a course at the Western College for Women. She is a woman of superior intellect, graces and accomplishments, and is a leader in the club and social life of Burkesville. To Dr. and Mrs. Owsley there has come one son, William Fayette, Jr., born August 16, 1906, who is now a student in the Burkesville High School.

STILES, born August 15, 1825, is a son of Henry and Ann (McAtee) Stiles. Henry Stiles was born in Maryland, came to Nelson County, Ky., with the earliest Catholic settlers, and was wounded in a fight with the Indians, in coming down the Ohio River. He was not a wealthy man at the start, but left an estate of 1,000 acres at his death in 1839, at the age of sixty-nine. His father, Philip Stiles, was a native of Maryland, of Scotch-Irish descent, and married a Miss O’Brian. Mrs. Ann Stiles was a daughter of George McAtee, who married a Miss Hamilton, of Maryland, and both came to Nelson County, Ky., at an early day. Edward L. Stiles was born where he still resides in Nelson County, was educated at St. Joseph’s College, Bardstown, and graduated in 1846. In May, 1848, he married Anna Bradford, daughter of David and Amanda (Davis) Bradford. David Bradford was an attorney, and for many years was superintendent of the mint at New Orleans. After his marriage, Mr. Stiles purchased a farm near Bardstown, but five years later removed to the old homestead. About 1857 he went to Louisiana and purchased an interest in a sugar plantation of 1,000 acres, and also owned about 100 Negroes. At the close of the late war he sold his interest in the land, and returned to New Hope, Ky., and in the winter of 1867-68 built a distillery, starting with a capacity of 200 bushels, which had been increased in 1881 to 1,000 bushels. In 1871, however, he sold out to Tom Shirley. At present he owns 1,000 acres of farming land, and his residence is a fine brick, erected by his father over seventy years ago, but recently remodeled and enlarged. Mr. and Mrs. Stiles are members of the Church of Rome.

Stevens, 1921, S. J. Clarke Publishing Company, St. Louis, Chicago. Captain Augustus Joseph Hiner of St. Louis, captain and pilot of Mississippi river steamboats, was born in Covington, Kentucky, December 17, 1860, and was but seven years of age when brought to Missouri in 1867 by his parents, David Augustus and Desdemona Amanda (Gorman) Hiner, the former a native of Hamilton county, Ohio, while the latter was born in Selma, Alabama. Captain Hiner pursued a high school course at Mexico, Missouri, and when seventeen years of age started out to learn piloting on the Mississippi river between St. Louis and New Orleans. He received his license from the government in 1881 and has since followed the profession. During his active career he had occasion to pilot: The Battleship Mississippi in May, 1909, from New Orleans to Natchez, Mississippi, and return; in May, 1911, the Battleship Idaho from New Orleans to Vicksburg and return; and in May, 1912, the Battleship Nebraska from New Orleans to Vicksburg and return. These were some of the largest ships of the navy at that time. He also piloted the government lighthouse tender Oleander in 1910 between St. Louis and New Orleans, with President W. H. Taft on board, when he was making an inspection trip of the rivers through the Mississippi valley in connection with the deep waterway's passage. Captain Hiner was also pilot on the same vessel for seven years, but has recently confined his operations to general river business. During the Spanish-American war in 1898 he was engaged as a pilot in the government service. During the World war he took a fleet of sixteen barges loaded with railroad cars for General Pershing in France, conveying them down the river to New Orleans. He was also master on the first vessel, the steamer Nokomis of the Federal Barge Line, handling foodstuffs and supplies for the government between St. Louis and New Orleans for shipment overseas. Captain Hiner came naturally by his interest in navigation, for his father, David Augustus Hiner, was for fifty years a pilot on the Mississippi and Ohio rivers and during the Civil war-acted as pilot on General Grant's flagship operating on those two rivers. His grandfather, David Hiner, was chief pilot of the Mississippi Squadron under Admiral David A. Porter. His great-grandfather, Jacob Hiner, was a resident of Pennsylvania and took part in the Revolutionary war. In the maternal line, too, Captain Hiner of this review comes of ancestry connected with navigation interests, for his great-grandfather on the mother's side was Nathan Hulbert, who was a pilot on the Ohio and Mississippi rivers before steam was used as a propelling power on river craft, as the vessels floated down the. river and the trip back was made by the men the best way they could, mostly by walking. Captain Hiner was married in North Carolina to Miss Isabella Grimm and they make their home at No. 4244 Westminster place in St. Louis. Captain Hiner gives his political allegiance to the democratic party, which he has always supported since age conferred upon him the right of franchise. He belongs to the American Association of Masters, Mates and Pilots. The experiences of his life which have come to him through his work as pilot and steamboat captain have been varied and interesting, bringing him into contact with many prominent people and through his efficiency in his chosen field of labor he has rendered signal service to the interests he has represented.

Mr. Clark’s third union was with Miss Myrtle Denham, to whom he was married June 9, 1920. She was born November 22, 1885, and is a daughter of Marcus Denhan, of Edmonson County. Mr. and Mrs. Clark have a family of two children: Harvey, who was born March 21, 1923; and Nina, born September 12, 1925. While living in Oklahoma, Mr. Clark promoted the sale of Liberty bonds and also worked for the success of the Red Cross drive. He belongs to Greenville Lodge of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and is affiliated with the Christian Church. He gives his political allegiance to the democratic party and during 1904-5 was attorney for Brownsville. He performed a similar service for the town of Calhoun and was also a member of the school board. Mr. Clark has used his well developed powers not only to further his individual interests but also to advance the public service and welfare and his record is a credit to the profession which he represents.

He is the son of Wilber and Martha (Warren) Griffith, both natives of Bourbon county, Kentucky, who came to Missouri in 1819 and settled in Pike county. Our subject was reared at his birthplace, and at the age of nineteen he began life for himself by learning the coopering business, which he followed in connection with farming up to 1855. He then gave up the coopering business and has devoted all his energies to his fine farm, the flourishing condition of which fully attests his skill as a manager, and his comfortable home with its tasteful surroundings show that he knows how to make his home attractive for his family, as well as to the stranger who comes within his gates.

COLLIER – Collier, Wyatt, Turner 11364 Centennial History of Missouri, One Hundred Years in the Union 1820-1921, Walter B. Stevens, 1921, S. J. Clarke Publishing Company, St. Louis, Chicago. William N. Collier, one of the most prominent breeders of thoroughbred Hereford cattle in the United States, makes his home at Fulton and has extensive farm property in Callaway county, on which are found his fine herds. Mr. Collier was born in the Blue Grass state, his birth having occurred near Falmouth, in Pendleton county, Kentucky, February 13, 1876. He is a son of William A. and Oetavia (Wyatt) Collier, both of whom were natives of Kentucky, to which state their parents had removed from Virginia. When William N. Collier was a lad of five years his parents went to Ellis county, Texas, where the father operated a cotton gin. There the son was reared and educated, attending the public schools, and when not busy with his textbooks his time was given to his father in the cotton gin until he reached his twenty-first year, at which period in his life he began riding the range and for twelve years thereafter engaged in punching cattle. During this time, or in 1902, he filed on a homestead, taking up four sections of land in Borden county, Texas, where he began his career as a raiser and breeder of cattle. After filing on his land he purchased a few Texas cattle, which he had on the range for three years. He then purchased his first thoroughbred cattle from A. B. Jones of Big Spring, Texas, who was recognized as one of the leading breeders of thoroughbred Herefords in Texas, Mr. Collier becoming owner of twenty cows and a bull. This constituted the beginning of an extensive business as a breeder that has brought him national reputation. In November, 1912, he traded his ranch for a farm of five hundred and fifty acres in Callaway county, Missouri, three miles from Fulton, and thereon he has continued the breeding of thoroughbred Herefords, having brought with him one hundred head of his finest cattle to Missouri. To this number he has added some of the best animals to be purchased from the most noted herds of the country and today he is known throughout the United States as one of the foremost breeders, having the finest bulls at the head of his herd. He has one bull, Master Key, for which he refused thirty thousand dollars, nor would he accept fifty thousand dollars for the animal. The Christmas number of the Breeders Gazette in both 1918 and 1919 has given him the best advertisement ever given to a bull. Members of his herd are shipped to all parts of the world and he does not find it necessary to hold any public sales to dispose of his cattle, his reputation having reached that point where breeders come to him to improve their herds. Up to the present time, in breeding, he is intensifying the blood lines of the Beau Donald family. His herd is second to none in the country and he now has one hundred and ninety animals aside from the calves. On the 19th of November, 1900, Mr. Collier was married to Miss Nannie Turner, of Ballinger, Texas, and they have become parents of a daughter, Katherine F. Mr. Collier is a member of the Christian church and his wife is a member of the Baptist Church. His political allegiance is given to the democratic party, but he does not seek nor desire office, his entire time and attention being given to his growing business interests. He is now the vice president of the Fulton Motor Company and has made other commercial investments. He has ever been regarded as a valuable acquisition to the business circles of Callaway county and his labors have been well worth while in the improvement of the grade of stock raised in the state. Following his example, many of the stockmen of Callaway county are breeding up and improving their herds, recognizing through his efforts the value of doing this. Mr. Collier recently made a sale of stock to an Iowa breeder amounting to forty thousand dollars, the latter being much impressed with a view of the Collier herd, saying that there was nothing in Iowa like it. He then bargained for and purchased Mr. Collier's farm of five hundred and fifty acres and located thereon in the spring of 1920. Mr. Collier, however, has another stock farm near the town, which he is converting into one of the show places of this section of the state, intending to make it one of the finest improved farms in Missouri.

Stevens, 1921, S. J. Clarke Publishing Company, St. Louis, Chicago. Hon. Frederick Dozier Gardner, who in 1921 retired from the office of governor of Missouri after a four years' term spent as chief executive of the state, was born in Hickman, Kentucky, November 6, 1869, a son of William H. and Mary Ellen (Dozier) Gardner. The father, a native of Weakley county, Tennessee, became a Confederate soldier in the Civil war and while the war was still in progress he wedded Mary Ellen Dozier of Mississippi. They established their home at Hickman, Kentucky, where they became parents of five children. The mother was one of the victims of the yellow fever epidemic of 1878 and the father afterward removed with his family of five children to the old home in Weakley county, Tennessee. Frederick Dozier Gardner acquired his education in the public schools and left Tennessee at the age of seventeen years to become a resident of St. Louis, where he arrived in the winter of 1886-7. Here he secured employment as a clerk with the St. Louis Coffin Company and while employed by that concern acquainted himself with each and every department of the business, including the measuring, grading and purchase of lumber. He also learned all about wood-working machinery used in the coffin industry and gained a thorough `practical knowledge of carpentering, cabinet-making and painting as applied to casket manufacture. He was promoted to the position of bookkeeper and in 1893 became a stockholder in the company, of which later he was elected secretary. He was afterward chosen president, becoming the controlling stockholder, and he is today practically the sole owner of the business, which is one of the leading independent concerns of the kind in the United States. He is likewise extensively interested in casket manufacturing plants at Memphis, Tennessee, Texarkana and Dallas, Texas. His business has been wisely and carefully managed and controlled and has become a source of substantial and gratifying income. Mr. Gardner is also an active and successful stock breeder of Missouri and has engaged in buying, operating and selling farms. In fact this has constituted his relaxation and diversion from the heavy responsibilities of his manufacturing interests. He likewise owns extensive timber lands in Arkansas and has made very judicious investments in all of the property which he holds. On the 10th of October, 1894, Mr. Gardner was married to Jeanette Vosburgh, of St. Louis, a daughter of the late Jacob Vosburgh, a retired manufacturer of this city. The family came originally from Holland, while Jacob Vosburgh was a native of Pennsylvania. To Mr. and Mrs. Gardner have been born three children: William King, born September 5, 1898, was educated in the public schools of St. Louis, in the Smith Academy and in the law department of the University of Missouri, in which he completed a course with the class of 1921; Dozier Lee, born June 19, 1902, was educated in the St. Louis public schools, the Smith Academy, the Mexico (Mo.) Military Academy and is now a student in the University of Missouri of the class of 1923; Janet, the youngest of the family, was born January 11, 1907, and is also in school. In the spring of 1913 Mr. Gardner was elected a member of the board of freeholders of St. Louis and aided in drafting the present charter of the city. He has always given his political allegiance to the democratic party and has for many years exercised much influence over public thought and action in this connection. In 1916 he became his party's nominee for the office of governor and was the choice of the people at the ensuing election, so that he entered upon a four years' term as chief executive of the state. Aside from the important work which Governor Gardner did through the momentous period of the World war-a work that is now a matter of history-he figured in many important semi-public and social connections and in the latter was most ably assisted by his wife, who bears the reputation of being one of the beautiful women of Missouri. She is a home maker and a mother and her natural grace and charm of manner render her a most pleasing hostess. Governor and Mrs. Gardner acted as host and hostess to the King and queen of the Belgians on the visit of the royal couple to St. Louis in November, 1919. Governor Gardner also presented to General Pershing on his visit to St. Louis on the 22d of December, 1919, a medal awarded by the state of Missouri in recognition of his service as commander of the American forces in the World war. He is a thirty-second degree Mason, holding membership in Ascalon Commandery, in the St. Louis Consistory and in Moolah Temple of the Mystic Shrine. He also belongs to the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of St. Louis and to the Knights of Pythias, and both he and his wife are active members of- the Methodist Episcopal church. While for four years, during his executive service, they resided at Jefferson City, they have always regarded St. Louis as their home and have recently returned to Missouri's metropolis, from which place Mr. Gardner is supervising his extensive business interests, for he is after all preeminently a business man and one who has displayed marked discernment, keen sagacity and notable executive ability in the successful control of his affairs.

M. Coulter, Ph. D., Department of History, University of Georgia. In Five Volumes, Volume V, The American Historical Society, Chicago and New York, 1922 Hubert Prentice Myers, district manager of the Central Home Telephone and Telegraph Company, is one of the business men of Bowling Green who has worked his way from small beginnings to a position of independence and importance. In no period of his career has he been specially favored by fortune or circumstance, but through the ready recognition and use of ordinary opportunities he has been able to rise steadily and his life is therefore one of typical self made manhood. Mr. Myers was born in Warren County, Kentucky, October 12, 1882, a son of W. H. and Helen (Kirby) Myers. He belongs to a family which is of Scotch- Irish origin and the American progenitor of which immigrated to this country some time in early colonial days, settling in Virginia. In that state, in 1822, was born the grandfather of Hubert P. Myers, George W. Myers, who became a pioneer in Allen County, Kentucky, near Allen Springs, where he died in 1897 after many years passed in agricultural pursuits. He married Miss Sophia Barrick, who was born in Barren County, Kentucky, in 1823, and died near Allen Springs, in October, 1920.

Stevens, 1921, S. J. Clarke Publishing Company, St. Louis, Chicago. Guy Wilson, president of the Traffic Motor Truck Corporation of St. Louis, has in his business career demonstrated the fact that opportunity is ever open to ambition, diligence and determination, for these qualities have been the dominant factors in the attainment of his present position and the success which has rewarded his labors. He was born in Christian county, Kentucky, May 1, 1878, his parents being Richard Henry and Maggie (Smith) Wilson. The father was a planter, who was descended from a long line of ancestors engaged in the same pursuits in Virginia. He had removed to Kentucky immediately following the close of the Civil war, in which he had served throughout the period of hostilities as an officer in the Confederate cavalry. Guy Wilson obtained a public school education in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, and started in business as a telegraph operator at a very early age with the Louisville & Nashville Railway Company in Kentucky. He remained in the railroad business until 1904, when he came to St. Louis and here turned his attention to insurance, becoming connected with the Prudential Insurance Company of America. He subsequently organized the firm of Rowland & Wilson, becoming state agents for the Prudential in Missouri, and within a brief period they developed the largest agency of the Prudential and one of the largest insurance agencies in America. Mr. Wilson continued in the insurance business until the spring of 1915, when he retired from that field to look after investments in the automobile business. He became vice president o1 the Brandle Motors Company of St. Louis and soon afterward joined with Theodore C. Brandle, president of the Brandle Motors Company, and Harry P. Mammen, general sales manager for the Westcott Motor Car Company of Springfield, Ohio, in organizing the Traffic Motor Truck Corporation, of which he is the president. Within three years' time this has become the largest exclusive builder of four thousand pounds capacity motor trucks in the world and its product is used through every civilized country on the face of the globe. In addition to his presidency of the Traffic Motor Truck Corporation, Mr. Wilson is also the president of the Finance Investment Trust. His business career has been one of notable success and prosperity, due to his thoroughness, his splendid powers of organization, his systematic management of interests, his initiative and laudable purpose. On the 21st of May, 1910, Mr. Wilson was married in Evansville, Indiana, to Miss Louise May, daughter of Adam and Phillipine May. They have become parents of two sons, Richard Henry and Louis Guy. Mr. Wilson belongs to the St. Louis Club. His political endorsement is given to republican principles and he keeps well informed on the questions and issues of the day, but he has never had time nor inclination to become an aspirant for public office, preferring to concentrate his energies upon his rapidly developing business interests and today St. Louis classes him among her prominent business men.
