The next of Aiilton's celebrities is the
Rev. DIR. Keatting: anutner Englishman
with a profusion of titles, and perhaps,
as many aliases BY some means he i'm
posed upon the Bishop of the Diocese OF

To show what a man of energy and
push can do we chronicle TIE following;
| Mr.. Isaac Nailor, contractor and builder
has since September 20, 1891 10 January
| Ist, 18oI-a period of three months and
ten days, Sundays Bcluded-commence
and completed the following work: A
dwelling house for Edward Wiley, this
being as neat and well-finished a building
as there is in town: a dwelling for I.
/ Veasey, near Harbesou; one Tor Oscar
Carpenter near the same place. one for
William Clements, III Milton; a large
barn for W II Chandler-4ox5o-a a
drug store for Mrs. Mary Fox. This drug
store is Que of the neatest, if not the
most complete Of any in the county. The
front and part of one side are OF large
plate glass, one of these glasses being 81
in KOS in Tie interior is of hard wood
fnish-ash and walnut alternating. The
arrangement of the prescription case
with mirrored front adds beauty to the
introspection we have seldom seen. Mr..
Douglass, the occupant, is proud Of his
store; and Justly So Mr.. Nailor has fur
nished all material far the above wors,
executed the plastering and painting III
the time mentioned. How is this for
business energy?
