    Notes:

    A. Michner, General Store, King Street East - Among those prominently identified with the business interests centred on King Street, Berlin, is Mr. A. Michner. This gentleman has been established in business for the past two years and a half, and has built up an excellent business. Previous to coming to Berlin, he was in business in West Montrose, where he also held the office of postmaster, and still retains the appointment. Here he occupies two stores, one being devoted to dry goods of all descriptions, laces, ribbons, hose, etc., also millinery, which is all of the latest and most fashionable make. In the other store he carries a full line of groceries, boots and shoes, crockery, etc. The premises occupied by him are 38x48 feet in dimensions, where employment is furnished to six assistants. He uses one delivery wagon for conveying goods to his customers, who reside both in town and country. Mr. Michner is a native of Canada, and a thorough-going, preserving and enterprising business man. He is doing an excellent business, which is constantly and steadily increasing.
