firm of Greer Brothers, operating
the Union Transfer Companys bat
terry Of transfer wagons and trucks
here, has gone to Hazard in East
Kentucky, where he has decided to
locate. and conduct a similar bust
ness.
Mr.. Greer made a trip to Hazard
some months ago to look into the
possibility. of establishing high.
class transfer service there, and was
so favorably impressed with that
town of some 1000. population, that
II was an easy matter for him to
definitely decide to cast his lot there
And, il the future may be judged
by the past, Mr.. Greer will show
the business people of Hazard some

dIe has followed this routine now
for some IA years in partnership
with his brother, Halliburton Greer,
maintaining such system of eific-
lent and rapid service that competi-
ton in the local field has been en-
tirely eliminated, yet at all times
their charges Tor service have been
most reasonable, and far below that
eXacted in other cities of even larger
size than Paris. In fact, the effic-
icncy of their delivery system from
the freight stations here, and in
general hauling, has developed to
such an extent that it can now be
conducted under the personal super
vision of enc of the brothers, thus
releasing one of them for other
fields.
Mr. Harry Greer and his estimable
wife will be missed from local
church and social affairs, and espe-
cially at the Presbyterian Church
where he is a member of the choir,
possessing an unusual voice, and
singer in the local quartette.
During his business career in this
city Mr.. Greer will also be remem-
bered as having served as book
keeper at the First National Bank
for several years. His wife was
