"Samuel R. Stocker spent his childhood on the home farm in West Windsor. His first employment away from home was as clerk in the store of Oilman Shedd, at Sheddsville, then with Dr. George B. Green, at Windsor, and finally in Hartland, in the store of Stocker & Bates. He eventually became owner of this store, but subsequently sold it to his brother, E. M. Stocker. In December, 1847, came to Windsor, where, for about eighteen months, he carried on a restaurant in company with his nephew, N. W. Patrick. He then opened a dry -goods store in the old Constitution House. He next formed a partnership with Luther C. White, under the firm name of Stocker & White, and for many years this firm did the leading busi-
ness in the town. He eventually purchased White's interest, and for a few years carried on the business in his own name. In 1861 he sold to M. C. Hubbard and Major L. C. Fay, and at the same time purchased the mills and water-power at North Enfield, N. H., and established there the Mascoma Woolen -Mills, and carried them on in partnership with Allen Hayes. Upon the dissolution of this partnership he rented out the mills for a number of years, again opening a dry -goods store in Windsor in company with Charles Story, the firm becoming Stocker & Story, and at the termination of this partnership he formed another with H. C. Phillips, and his son, L. W. Stocker, and carried it on under the title "One Price Store," until his death, which occurred April 21, 1885."
