He is a native of Canada and is about thirty-eight years of age. He has a very large and fine refrigerator for keeping and preserving butter and lard, and gives constant employment to more than twenty men in conducting the business, and four teams are used steadily in the delivery of goods sold. This enterprising business has been in progress during the past six years and the trade thereof is becoming more extensive year by year. Mr. Hill is an active, energetic man, genial in temperament, strictly honest in all business matters, and enjoys the respect and confidence of the community in a high degree. |
