1889 he located in st. Thomas. Here
his business increased to such an ex-
tent that in 1892 he took his brother
L. A. into partnership. and later ON.
Corwin was called to their assistance.
Messrs. Miller have their business d.
vided in three epatments, law, loans
and collections and do very exten
sive business in each department..
The fact that they have built up so
large business in so short a time is
proof prositive of the ability, energy
and probity of the firm and particular

the chief manager. Indeed, Mr.. Mil
Ter is so much engaged in his present

time necessary in the assumption of
the duties of states attorney, and It
was only the most urgent solicitation
Of friends that persuaded him to al

is modest, unassuming man, but his
ability and worth is recognized by his
fellow citizens and he is at present
