Harford’s Grocery and Meat Market, located at 336 South Main street, was established 20 years ago, and from the beginning has enjoyed a most liberal patronage. Mr. H. C. Harford, the proprietor, is well versed and skilled in all departments of his business. His stock is always selected with due regard to condition and his meats are always the choicest. His home made lards and sausages are always sweet, pure and clean and are prime favorites with housekeepers. Mr. Harford is assisted by A. L. Stingley, an experienced cutter and a very pleasant gentleman. Mr. Harford has been a resident since 1865 and is too well known to require further comment.
