      Mr. Kreutzweiser was born at Bridgeport and is the only harness maker in the village. He learned his trade with German of Waterloo, and subsequently worked in St. Jacobs, He commenced here May 6, 1890. Being a practical mechanic and one who attends strictly to business he has been successful. In 1895 he erected his present fine brick shop, which is 24 x 28 feet and one and a half stories. He keeps quite a large stock of harness and everything to be found in a first-class shop, such as horse blankets, dusters, sweat pads, collars, halters, oil covers, whips, a full line of rivets and a large line of trotting boots, binder canvas, etc. He deals also in bicycles and does all kinds of repairing in that line, and makes a specialty of the Ohio, one of the best on the market. He does not stop here but keeps the best make of washing machines for sale and has a large line of trunks and valises. He has a wood yard and takes in exchange wood for harness which he disposes of in Waterloo and Berlin. He also has cedar posts for sale.

      Mr. Kreutzweiser is the representative here of the Ontario Mutual, hav [having] become the successor of the late Louis Krostech. He bears the reputation of being an honest workman, no patron leaving his shop without knowing what he is getting for his money. He is still enjoying a life of single blessedness.
