He came to Colorado with his father when he was 19 years old.

Orson and Katherine met while Orson was on a business trip to Ohio.

He initially went into the mining business in Georgetown CO during the
silver boom. There, he lost his right hand when a crystallized stick of
dynamite he was holding exploded (he told his children that he lost his
hand in a fight with Geronimo). In 1905, he then quit the mining business
and took over his father's interest in the Clark Mineral Springs (see photo).
He immediately rebuilt the bathhouse (before, after). That year, they treated
over 1,900 individuals.

In 1916, he sold his interest in the Mineral Springs and moved to a ranch 7
miles south of Greenhorn. There he raised prize stock
and was a member of the County Stock growers association.

In 1925 he resumed a more active role in the Mineral Springs, although
maintaining his residency at the ranch. Later in his life, he and his wife
sold the ranch and moved to 1127 Grand, Pueblo.

His death made the front page of the Pueblo Cheiftan Newspaper.
