As an engineer he was not a success, but the lines on which they were made out gave an idea of the man's character. When he wanted to reach a place he "got there" hills and valleys notwithstanding. On one occasion his coach going down an incline turned over killing the horse and driver but he himself got off with a shaking.
Stuart had an agent named Patrick Smith who had a very remarkable career. He was the son of a woman who kept a huxter's shop in Bailieboro; and in his early days carried the mails on horseback between Kells and Bailieboro.

Smith got so much "above himself" all in a hurry, that he forgot his former acquaintances in Bailieboro', and even his own mother. Not a few were jealous of his rise, but all had to show him obedience and respect "fitting his exhaulted position" Stuart was a member of the Irish House of Commons, and an opponent of Catholic rights.
