Hotel Reneau, after being re-
modelled and thoroughly reno
waited, is. now open for guests,
under the direction of Col. John
H. Iszard, recently of the New

suppose from a merely exterior
view. The dining room is
capacious and comfortable with
plenty of light and the thirty
sleeping apartments are all
large, airy and nicely furnished.

so neat and cozy that it will
surely become a popular hostelry
in very short time under the
guidance of its popular and
affa BILE landlord.
