  • Notes 
    • About the turn of the century R. B. Keeler and Son opened a repair shop and jewellery store at the west end of Glick's Block and carried on some years. Charlie Grill returned from Aylmer and bought the business and he sold out to Frank Calvert. Mr. Calvert operated successfully and then moved to one of the far western States where he did a huge business and when he left he sold out to Fred Gunther who came here from Dundas in the year 1928 and continued until he passed on in 1946.

      His son, Harold, who had learned the trade with his father, then took over, remained about two years in that stand and then in 1948 moved to the present location in the Smellie Block where he has a high class store such as one would look for in our cities.
