Orleans, La. Came to Texas in
1884. Lived in Rockdale, Taxas,
until 1900. Began working for
Perkins Bros, in 1906 as sales-
man. In 1906 was sent to Alva-
rado, Texas, to manage a store
there for Perkins Bros. In 1906,
when Perkins Bros, bought out
Baity, he came to Denison to
manage their store. Perkins Bros,
bought out Baity August 10,1908.

iness.
This notice is not paid for, and
Mr. Kemp has not seen a line. It
is written because Manager Kemp
deserves it, and it is the pleasure
of the Gazetteer to give it.
