Number 3 for 2,040 shares to Northern Pacific Railroad. Signed by Hauser and George Earl as secretary. Hole punch cancelled. Robert Harris signs back as President of the Northern Pacific Railroad Company. Samuel T. Hauser was educated as a civil engineer, he found his first employment, in 1854, on The Missouri Pacific Railway, but several years later followed the throng of emigrants to the Northwest, and, in 1862, prospected the upper waters of the Missouri river as far as Fort Benton and the upper waters of the Columbia River. In the Fall, he came East as far as the Bannock mines, and spent some time in mining in that region, and, in 1863, prospected along the route of the Lewis and Clarke expedition as far as the Yellowstone valley. Having accumulated sufficient means, Mr. Hauser opened a bank in Virginia City, Mont. In 1866, Hauser organized The First National Bank of Helena, which city has since been his home. Several branch railroads in Montana, now united as The Northern Pacific & Montana, were built by him under contract. Star punch cancellation effects Hauser's signature as president. Very nice.
