      _______

      S. Gabel.

      For a long time prior to six months ago when the above named gentleman moved to the village, the people of Hawksville went without their daily supply of good fresh meat. Mr. Gabel was born in Plattsville, Oxford county, and has been engaged in the butchering business for about six years. He was married in 1878 to Miss Lizzie, daughter of John Heimbecker, formerly of Listowel. They have three children. He located his shop here about six months ago, and has already acquired quite a fine patronage. He kills none but the best beef animals and is therefore always prepared to furnish his customers with first class fresh meat He daily delivers meat in a wide section of territory. His refrigerator is always. well supplied with ice, and his patrons need not fear getting tainted meat during the hot days of summer.
