substantially built of brick, three stories
high. The lower story is fitted for store,
and 1t will be, to sly the least, second to
none in Burlington for size, convenience and
attractiveness. 1t is 10 feet in depth, with
an arrangement of floors at the rear, which
practically gives it t depth of 20 feet more.
