E. H. Miller, Our popular cigar
manufacturer has accepted a part
of the cigar factory now owned by
his father at Princeton, Wis. The
firm has been known as Miller &
Son for some time. The son left
the firm to start for himself at Vir-
ginia, Mimi, coming to Winton
later and operating cigar factory.
He has made good here but being
too much confined in his work he
decided to take rest by going in
to business with his father where
fifteen men are employed thus en-
abling him to get outside more.
Mr.. Miller will be missed by a host
of friends here, being a respected
citizen of our town. He will leave
Monday for Princeton, and the
best wishes of all his friends follow
him.
