  • Notes 
    • W.D. Brown, Fruits and Confectionery

      Mr. Brown delights himself in catering to the public's needs in this line and for fifteen years has done it in royal style. His ice cream parlors are elegance itself, capable of seating comfortably over one hundred people at a time. While his ice cream is cool, he has mastered the art of giving warm welcome to his guests. Indeed we could not dispense with the catering of Mr. Brown. His place of business is on Main Street, in the new Struthers' block.
