Hiram R. Houghton, of Massachusetts, through the advice and encouragement of Stephen Tucker, bought the Comfort tract and erected the first blacksmith shop in the village and paid for the land by blacksmithing. He married Sophia Benson and died when only thirty-six years of age, leaving four children. Hosea Benson bought the interest of one of the girls and after the war, in September 1865,he erected a store. The first firm was Benson, Manzer & Tucker and they did a business of sixty thousand dollars in three years, when their partnership expired by limitation, and H. M. Benson took charge of the business which he has continued until now.
