Saxton was given such educational advantages, only, as the village school afforded, and at the age of fourteen years began life as a wage-earner in the paper mills, where he continued working for about eight years. Desirous then of finding more remunerative employment, he prospected in different localities, finally becoming a clerk at a lunch counter at Toledo, Ohio. Soon resigning that business, Mr. Saxton became brakeman on the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad, but four months of that work proved sufficient for him, and he made a change of occupation, going to Ishpeming, Michigan, as clerk in a hotel. Coming from there to Farwell, Clare county, in 1882, he accepted a position as clerk in a store, and when his employers transferred their stock and business to a place then called Meredith, Mr. Saxton accompanied them, and remained with them two years. He then opened a barber shop at that place and followed that trade. After traveling a while Mr. Saxton returned to Farwell where he continued in that business for some time.
