Mr.. Barton is therefore one of our
pioneer business men. He succeeded
the firm of Barton 81 Averill who pur-
chased the old Miller store and has
continued to do business in the same
building that was formerly occupied
by the old firm.
Mr.. Barton is of English parentage
and came to this country when only a
child. He is possessed of those excel
lent qualities of character which have
won for the respect of the entire COM
munity and he can be found every day
closely attending to business, and his
G7 years seem to set lightly on him.
He had been honored on several oc-
casions by election to village office
and has always pursued an honorable
course and in every respect is entitled
to mention IN these columns at this

Way back about 35 years ago, when
Perrysburg was known as the grain
market for the northern half of Wood
county, William Barton first became
engaged in the merchantile interests
of the village by being connected
with the old firm of F. r. Miller &,
Co., which was recognized at that
time as one of the big firms of the
county. They handled large quanti-
ties of all the country products which
were brought here from way back IN
the black swamp and shipped by yes
sci to eastern markets. 1t was then that
the subject of our sketch first began
making the acquaintance of the good
farming people and from that day to
the present time he has continued to
hold the good will of all with whom
he has had acquaintance.

in from the hall, on to which the dining
room opened. AS soon as the captain
entered l slammed the door behind
him, and this gave Gorham his cue to
act, and, setting my back to the door,
turned upon the two men.
"Thls is a private quarrel between
Sir Burton Prendergast and myself,
Captain Hillary, and You will have the
goodness not to interfere"
"There is treachery afootr' shouted
Sir Burton, mad with rage "The pris-
oner you want is in the hall concealed
in the statue, captain. This IS n trick
to cheat you of him"
LET me pass, sir. shall hold you
responsible" said the captain to me on
the instant, speaking very angrily.
Responsible for what?' exclaimed
"The mans mad. Does he mean that
he and you have been all this time in
the hall there and he has given you no
inkling of the story he now tells? You
don't believe that, surely?" | said, hold
ing my place at the door and listening
with all my ears for some sound that
Gorham had done his work.
LET me pass, sir!' cried the officer,
drawing his sword. "In the name OF
the king let me pass
"Do you draw upon an unarmed
man?" 1 exclaimed, and as l spoke l
heard a sound from the hall which
seemed to show that young Gorham
had succeeded.
'If you hinder me further your blood

cowardly threat, but l masked my
temper.
Probably she will put herself in my

We must set things going or the whole
county will think we are mad.
His face lighted with triumph as he
held out his arm and my sweet Awdrey
placed the tips of her fingers upon it,

pretense of giving him some directions
about the evenings arrangements,
whispered that he was to get the pris
