In I860 he went to the city of New York, and engaged in the brokerage business and rapidly made his way to tho front on Wall street. He was chosen vice-pres ident of the "Gold Board" or stock ex change, the president of which waa' a retired merchant, and Dr. Hoyt pre sided over the exchange in blr ab sence, which was" continuously.

After the war between - the States, when Mr Burt was bereft pf his com panion, the historio place passed bato the hands of the late James Norwood, whose family have since occupied it.
