William G.. Reynolds was born in
Mansfield June IS, 1883, and he
has been greatly in evidence here
ever since. He is the only son of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. d. Reynolds, and
ever in his kid-hoCd days he has
been a conspicuous character. He
was educated in the Mansfield school.
August II, 1908, he was married to
Miss Bessie Lucille Mick, of Kansas,
and he and his estimable wife have
domiciled themselves in a beautiful
home on Commercial street.
Mr.. Reynolds has associated HIM
self with one of the largest and best
known concerns in the world-the
Ford Motor Company. He secured
the agency for this celebrated car
three years ago, and sold 10 cars the
first year-being the first cars of
any make sold in the vicinity of
Mansfield. Last year he sold over
one hundred Fords. He is now err
