Royal Hotel

This well known house was built in 1855 by Peter Smith. His brother Louis was its proprietor for two years, after which it was occupied by one Walker. In 1860 it became the property of the late Peter Berdux, who conducted it for a period of fifteen years. It was then handed over to his son Ferdinand who continued to be its landlord and proprietor until last February when he leased it to its present occupant, Mr. Philip Hasenpflug The latter is yet a young man, but has good promise of being a successful hotel man. Mr. Hasenpflug was born in West Montrose on June 17, 1873 He was reared on the farm and at the age of eighteen years had his first experience in hotel life, commencing with Thomas O'Dounel at Elmira, July 17, 1891. Here he remained about five months and then went to Waterloo where he was for some time engaged in Doersam's hotel, now known as the City Hotel. From the latter he went to the Alexander House where he remained four years. After this he was employed at Huether's hotel for ten months. Subsequently he went to Berlin for a short time. While there he received a call to accept a position in the Market Hotel, Galt, but having already concluded to go into business on his own hook he declined and came to Wellesley village. Mr. Hasenpflug is a son of John George Hasenpflug, who was for many years employed by Hon. E. W. B. Snider at German Mills. The subject of this sketch was married April 26, 1897, to Miss Anna, daughter of Mr. Thomas Roesch, formerly engaged in the milling business in Waterloo. They have one child. The Royal under Mr. Hasenpflug's management is enjoying its old time patronage, having its share of the commercial trade. For a hotel keeper he is among the exceptions, being temperate in his habits and by his general personal appearance the stranger would be led to believe that he indulged at all in intoxicants He keeps strict order, and his house is in every particular prepared to afford comfortable accommodations for the travelling public
