August 12 1851. The Bacon family name is of English origin having been transplanted to New England during Colonial times; The great-grandfather of Mr. Bacon was wounded at the Battle of Bunker Hill. The Bacon family had been prominent in medical circles for many generations and it was the wish of his father that Francis E. Bacon should adopt that profession. The latter however decided to become a merchant and when he was about fourteen years old apprenticed himself to a merchant of Fulton. At the end of eighteen months Mr. Bacon following the advice of his father gave up his work and entered Falley Seminary where his father at one time was an instructor. His studies there completed Mr. Bacon accepted appointment as a school teacher and taught for one term but at the end of the session he returned to the dry goods business as a clerk in the store of B. J. Dyer & Co. of Fulton. Mr. Bacon within two years came to be regarded as an expert and accepted a better position in another store of Fulton but ultimately returned to the Dyer establishment as a part owner of the business. While still retaining his interest in the Dyer Company he bought the store where he had worked as a clerk only a few years before and under the name of Francis E. Bacon & Co. built this up to the point where it was the leading store of the town. When he had placed this new business on a firm basis he withdrew from B. J. Dyer & Co. and devoted himself to the former. In 1894 his health became impaired through overwork and he was compelled to give up the management of his store. Having acquired other interests in Fulton including leather lumber and the Fulton Machine Works of which he was President he retired from the merchandise business and devoted a year to these outside affairs most of his work in connection therewith being out of doors. Mr. Bacon's health was restored in this way and he then availed himself of an opportunity to establish a department store in the city of Syracuse N.Y. He invited a former partner Mr. Chappell to join him in this enterprise and the firm of Bacon Chappell & Co. was established. They began operations on a comparatively modest basis but with Mr. Bacon as the directing force the business finally became one of the principal commercial establishments of that section. Mr. Bacon continued in active charge of the business until 1910 but his ceaseless activity in private and public affairs again impaired his health and he was compelled to abandon his work.<br><br>An interesting piece of historical memorabilia in very good condition.
