Business careerAs a businessman, he amassed a large fortune in textile manufacturing, drug stores and railroad concerns. Among other businesses, Hollister founded the Standard Silk Company and the Clayville (New York) Woolen Mills. Purchased the site of Washington Mills, New York in 1840 from Isaac Mason. The mill built on the site by Hollister was painted in his signature checkerboard pattern (a drug store in Utica was known as "the checkered store.) Because of the colors of the mill, the local name for the mill site was "Checkerville."
