HENRY A. BUGBEE RETIRES
 FROM GRAIN BUSINESS
Cutler Company, Inc., Purchases Bus mess and Will Take Control at Once

[ Henry A. Bugbee, who for the past 29 years has conducted a grain busi- ness in this city, has sold his business on Main street to the Cutler company, Inc, of North Wilbraharn, Mass. The new owners will take possession of the business this morning. This company has a chain of IF stores scattered throughout New York. Connecticut and Massachusetts with the main distrib- uting plant at Ghent. N. Y. They leased the building which will be used as a distributing plant by the new owners.
 H. A. Bugbee first started in the grain business with his father, J. c. Bugbee, in 1879 at which time the store was located on the corner of Jackson and Valley streets. In 1883 the business was sold to William D. Grant and the late Edwin Bugbee, a brother of J. c. Bugbee. In 1884 the late J. c. Bugbee built store on the corner of Jackson and Ash streets and entered into the grocery, coal and grain business. At this time H. A. Bugbee worked for his father in this store. In 1887 MT. Bugbee started a store on Church street in what was known as the Morrison building, which connects with the town property on that street. In 1897 he bought out J. W. and F. J. Doon. whose business was located in the Anse1 building on Main street. It was in 1905 that he moved into the building which is now occupied by the business. This build ing is a model one for the grain busi- ness and it is considered by many to be the best equipped grain elevator in the state of Connecticut.
 Through the faithful and untiring efforts of MT. Bugbee the business had been brought up to such a, standard that it is thought to be the best and largest grain business in eastern Con- necticut. MT. Bugbee, who is forty nine years of age and very active. has not taken twenty-five days off from business in that many years. He has always been a devoted adrnirer of Guernsey cattle and is the possessor of 9 number of cows of that breed to which he will devote most of his time. He will continue to remain at the plant for two or three months during which time he will introduce his cus- toners to the new management.
 MT. Livesly, who has acted as au- ditor for the Cutler company, will be
 manager of the local store and he will be assisted by two boolzkeepers.
