Stephen F. Austin, Nathan F. Baker, Edward C. Moore and Christian H. Schultz, were useful and active men of business with umblemished reputations, who had achieved success, and whose lives although not challenging public notice, but running in quiet grooves, were no less interesting and worthy of emulation.
