Cigar Factory For Rensselaer.

A. Lewis from Logansport has come to Rensselaer and will start a cigar factory over Vanatta’s harness store. Mr. Lewis is an experienced man in the manufacture of fine cigars, and by square dealing and honest goods has established an enviable reputation in many of the towns of north-western Indiana, having a large trade in Goodland, Kentland, Remington, Fowler and many other towns near here. He will do his best to merit and hopes to receive a liberal share of patronage of the people of Rensselaer. The new factory starts out with four workmen.
