    Heber lived at home until his 19th year when he engaged in the butchering business with Egbert Warner and later established a profitable paying business in Beacon Falls, and when at the height of his prosperity no one in the town drove a better pair of trotters or sported a better gold watch and chain than he did. But alas for human frailty, like many others he could not stand prosperity, and the many dollars he once could lay claim to gradually slipped from his nerveless grasp. At the last friendless and almost an outcast, he was killed by a railroad train at a crossing in Beacon Falls several years ago.
