ware dealer and tin worker, at 252
Broadway. His life's history most
happily illustrates what may be at
tanned by faithful and continued eff
fort IN carrying out an honest pur-
pose.} Integrity. activity and energy

cessful in the conducting of their
business, which consisted in dealing
in hardware and working in tin and
sheetiron The partnership was dis
solved in 1903, when Mr.. Lovely
opened business under his own
name at 244 Broadway in the AIKEN
building. Subsequently he removed
his business to No. 252 Broadway,
where he is now located, having es
fablished a permanent and lucrative
business.

four, having two brothers and one
sister, Charles, who is a machinist
