He owns a half-interest in the old family homestead, consisting of over 500 acres of valuable and productive land, which is devoted to the breeding of fine trotting horses, on a somewhat extensive scale. In 1866 Mr. Mock commenced running the old “Mock Distillery”, which has a capacity of fifty bushels of corn per day, and has met with fair success.
