cRANGLE, DALzELL AND co.
The business now conducted i'll the
name of CRANGLE, DALzELL & Co., is
probably the Oldest wholesale grocery
trade in the city. The firm OF BAILEY
and CR,NeIE was established about
twenty five years ago. The firm was sub
seouently changed and the trade continu
ed under the name of R. CkANGLE q GO,
and remained thus during several years.
About six months ago, another change
was effected in the composition and style
oftbe firm. and the new firm takes the
name of CRANGLR, DALzELL g. Co., un-
der which titleit succeeds to the business
established a quarter of century since
OF course, during these long years, by the
employment of additional capital from
time to time and by the infusion OF new
energy with every change in the compo-
sition of the firm, large and lucrative
trade HIS been built up. Next to GRAN
GLE. DALzELL & Co, probably the oldest
twisting firm in the wholesale grocery
business in this city is that OF

bought out, something over twenty years
ago, by Messrs. PAXTON and TINGLE' Inc

firm is larger than that of any OF their
predecessors and is being pushed for
ward with commendable industry and
zeal The house of
LIST MORRISON AND CO.,
is next in point of age. 1t was estao-
lished about twenty years ago and was
originally conducted by LIST, HOWELL

the year 1915, when, by the death OF Mr.
STEELE, one of the partners i'll the es-
tablshment, the name of the firm was
changed to LIST and HOWELL. In the
wear 1853, another change was effected
and the business was conducted Tor few
months under the name of HENRY K.

grocery trade in the city, The gentle
men composing the present firm are ell
ergotic business mon and their activity
is being abundantly rewarded by the
growing proportions of their trade.

formerly been engaged in the wholesale
grocery trade, Mr.. MAXWELL having been
partner in the house of PAXTON, DoN-

prosecuted with such diligence and ex-
tended with such energy that it now
ranks second in extent in the city, being
