Mayor Waterman's signature on an 1857 brothel license
Waterman was nominated for mayor in 1856 as the Know Nothing Party candidate when he was about 47 years of age.
The New Orleans City Council impeached and removed Waterman from office on 3 June 1858. Henry M. Summers was appointed interim mayor, serving from 5 to 21 June.[3]
Waterman disappeared in June 1860, possibly committing suicide by jumping into the Mississippi River, where his hat was later found on a ferry on the river.[4]
