Still Another Business Change

Still another important business change, in this time of many changes, is now to be recorded. And by the change, far the oldest business man in Rensselaer, in point of time he has been in business here, has now retired. Norman Warner, head of the hardware and implement firm of N. Warner & Sons retires from the firm, and his youngest son, Charles 0. Warner becomes a member. The members of the firm are therefore now D. G. Warner, N. H. Warner and Charles C. Warner, and their firm name will be Warner Brothers. “Uncle Norm” had been in business in Rensselaer just 40 years last Friday, and he 'well deserves to rest and take his ease the balance of his days. He has not been in the hardware business all that time, as for quite a good many years he had a blacksmith and wagon shop.
