Murray's Meat and
Provision Market
One of Palatka's Most Essential Es'
adjustments.

It can be accepted as self-evident
proposition that the character OF the
equipment of any business defines the
nature and volume of its operations,
and Judged by this infallible guide the
Murray meat market possesses the
distinction of doing the largest bust
ness in its line in Palatka.
The market was established in 1886,
and has been in successful operation
ever since, having changed hands but
once-which was last June when the
proprietorship passed from Thomas
Murray, who founded the business, to
G.. Murray, his brother. Both OF these
gentlemen are natives of Scotland, and
expert butchers and-market-men, hav-
ing rendered to their patrons an ELI
cient and reliable service under all
circumstances.
Modern fixtures and sanitary ar
rangements throughout the establish
ment guarantee absolute cleanliness in
all departments. One of the largest
refrigerators in this part of the state
is feature of the equipment, having
ample capacity for the storage OF
meats, fish and oysters. Not only are
| Florida killed meats carried in stock
but the best productions OF the West
ern packers are drawn upon to sup
ply the trade. The best poultry, hams
and sausage that can be procured
hereabouts and in the great supply
centers are also carried in great guam
titles at all times.
The Murray market is an institution
that has served the best families oil
Palatka and the surrounding country
fer so many years that it is looked up
on as one of the substantial and in
dispensible landmarks of the town.

years, and not only has it added to
the citys renown in commercial way,
but the members of the firm have
taken an active part in public affairs
and have earned the esteem of their
fellowcitizens in a variety of ways.
For some years previous to the form
alton of the present corporation, N.
J. Tilghman and Sons were a part of
what is now the Wilson Cypress Com
pany. After the dissolution of the Viii
son-Tilghman partnership, Mr.. Thigh
man and his sons, William G. and
John O. Tilglman. bought out the
Boyd mill, and began the manufacture
of cypress shingles. John Q. Thigh
man, lately deceased was for years
in charge of the local office. His two
sons. w. w. Tilghman and John Q.
Tilghman, Jr., have since taken his
place in the concern.
The plant covers about two acres,
and has a capacity of seventy-f FIVE
thousand shingles a day The timber
used in the manufacture of these :
grown in Putnam and surround ng
counties. The company owns its own
standing timber and operates its own
logging camps. These are located
from ten to thirty miles up the river,
and large tug-boat, the famous Mary
Howard is kept in commission most
of the year, towing logs from the
camps to the local mill About thirty.
