His father, a pioneer preacher of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, settled in Napoli in 1832. He traveled hundreds of
miles through forests, storms, and sunshine. Enoch came to
East Randolph in 1838, and worked for Capt. Amos Hall one year
at $12 per month, and continued with him about fifteen years,
transacting a large amount of business along the Allegheny,
Ohio, and Mississippi Rivers. He has been engaged on his own
account in lumbering, farming, and merchandizing, and now owns
with his son Ernest D. the "upper grist-mill" in East Randolph,
located on the site of the first grist-mill of the place
erected by Philemon Hall in 1824. Mr. Holdridge also has a
half-interest in the Randolph Mills in East Randolph Village.

Randolph Academy and at the organization of Chamberlain
Institute was elected trustee, which position he still holds.
He has been an efficient, honorable, and upright man and
officer.
