ISAAC N. CAMP.

1t was something like forty years
ago that Isaac N. Camp, of Gilmore,
and Hampden L. Story, formerly of
Cambridge, came to this city and es-
tablished a music store. Their bust
ness was most successful for they
were men of push and were always
at the front. Some fifteen years ago
Mr.. Story retired and was succeeded
by the house of Deacon Estey & Co.,
the firm thus being Estey & Camp.
To-day they are among the leading
dealers of musical instruments in the
west, and the house of Estey & Camp
is one of the bulwarks of the garden
city.
Isaac N. Camp is rich; he has a
palatial home and is most pleasant
iy surrounded, and is always pleased
TO meet Vermonter, especially from
"Spunky Lamoille," and extend him
the right hand of fellowship. He is
reserved, but not an autocrat. He
has great reverence for that badge
ain God We Trust" A big round
dollar in the embrace of Isaac N.
Camp, father or son, is generally
there to stay; but they pay the
freight.
