Building himself up from an almost unknown tradesman to one of the most widely known and most strictly honest bus mess men Of the day, his life has been one of activity and energy, and has been a benediction to the whole community.
 MT. Shinn will retire from the mercantile business and will give bis time and attention to looking after his large landed and other various interests.
