In 1863, Harrison bought the Reed homestead which included 100 acres of farm. He worked hard to help get a railroad established through Honeoye to allow farmers to have a better outlet for selling their goods; Ironically he was injured nine years before his death when the wagon he was driving was struck by a Lehigh Valley train at Honeoye Falls. He regained some health and was able to look after his farm. In March 1911, he fell from a load of straw and struck his head. He died due to the fall and his previous injuries.
