He was born in 1803, in New Yor k, and came to Detroit in 1825 with Cullen Brown, worked at his trade o f harness maker for a few years, and then formed the copartnership of Dea n & Hurlbut. The firm had carried on the saddlery and harness trade for t hree years when Mr. Hurlbut left it to go into the grocery business wit h his brother-in-law, Alexander McArthur. The firm had an existence of bu t a few years, Mr. McArthur leaving the city for Corunna. In 1837 Mr. Hur lbut built the store at No. 50 Woodward avenue, where he engaged in the g eneral grocery trade up to a short time before his death. His public serv ices began in 1840, when he served a term as alderman of the second ward , and again in 1841. In 1857 he was appointed sewer commissioner, an offi ce to which he was reappointed in 1859. In 1861 he was appointed to the b oard of water commissioners in place of John V.

He was always an active member of the Detroit mechan ics' society, and was its president in 1835. When the merchants' exchang e and board of trade was formed, at a meeting over which C. C. Trowbridg e presided, he was chosen one of the directors with John Owen and B. L. W ebb.

John Owen, President Fire Department:
Dear Sir --inclosed you will find a warrant on the city treasurer for &d ollar;100, which I received for services as chief engineer of the fire de partment. Being a believer in Franklin's doctrine that no man should gro w rich by the emoluments of office, I remit the warrant to you for the be nefit of the fire department.
