  • Notes 
    • John Young, the Tailor.

      Those who admire and desire a nest fitting and fashionable suit of clothes can be promptly accommodated by calling on the above named gentleman. He is equipped in every way to fulfil their wants. Mr. Young is a fashionable tailor in every sense of the word. He served part of his time at St. John's, Mich., and the balance at Lisbon. He learned cutting in Waterloo with Abe Slater and was for some time a partner of John Ritzer of that town. He is a native of Waterloo county, his birthplace being between Elmira and Conestogo. He is married and is the father of three children but two of whom are deceased. Mr. Young has been in business here ten years, a very good indication that he is suiting his numerous patrons well. In the busy season four hands are engaged in his shop. He keeps on hand the largest stock of worsted goods and foreign and domestic tweeds of any one tailor this side of Waterloo. In the large display there are some very fine and stylish patterns and one wonders how they can be made up into the most fashionable suits for the small sum of fifteen dollars. Mr. Young is noted for making easy and best fitting suits. Shoddy work is entirely out of his line, his aim being always to use the best and most durable material, and the making up of the same is constantly under his supervision to prevent inferior workmanship. He occupies two large rooms, one for his workshop and the other for his tweeds and worsted goods. Mr. Thos. F. Hickey, a practical coat maker, who served his time with D. M. Gabel, of Conestogo, and one time employed with Mr. Harry Baltzer, of Berlin, is now engaged in Mr. Young's shop.
