Hardware Sold

The Rupert Crandall & Cotter Hardware Co. has sold its stock and business to E.N. Baldwin & Sons of Fayette, Ohio.

Mr. Baldwin has several sons and expects as time develops his plans, to settle each in a hardware store He will then become purchaser for all of them, thus getting into a class that will buy in carload lots, and be able to take other advantages of the marketplace.

Their store at Fayette has long been a model for enterprise and courteous treatment of its customers. They bought an old hardware at Tecumseh, Michigan, some time ago, and have built it into an up-to-the-minute store in that line.
