In that year he removed to California, where he published The Philosophical Journal until a few months ago when failing health obliged him to retire from business. "He was a thoroughbred Englishman to the core; was up to every nicety in the printing business from composing room to binding inclusive, chock full of vim and energy." Thus wrote one of his Iowa contemporaries who knew him well.
