In time he came into possession of the 200 acres, of which he had cleared more than half, and all the improvements on which are due to him and his untiring energy. Being a very large man he was considered an excellent chopper, and during his busy, active life he has acquired more than a competence.

In politics Matthew W. McCormick is a strict Conservative, and in years past has taken an active part in the affairs of the township, acting as collector of taxes for three years, and assessor three years, and he has refused many other offices, his private concerns requiring too much of his time to permit of his acceptance of further preferment. He belongs to the Church of England, while his wife is a Methodist. They are exceptionally fine people, and are much beloved in the community where they are known so well.
