About 16 years ago, Hugh and William Leitch established a livery business in Cornwall, but the former has been sole proprietor for most of the time since.  His stables, which are in the rear of the Standard Block, are most commodious and are well lighted and ventilated.  Being an excellent judge of horses from a lifetime of experience, Mr. Leitch keeps only the best animals and his vehicles are of equally high class.  For weddings and funerals he has a number of especially fine hacks, and visitors to Cornwall can always depend on first class service Mr. Leitch is a native of the South Branch, Cornwall Township.  His charges are moderate and his attention to the wants of the public leaves nothing to he desired.

      The business house of Campbell Bros., hardware and groceries, was established some 33 years ago by Hill Campbell and his brother, the late William Campbell, who made the name of the firm a household word throughout Stormont and Glengarry.  Later, Mark Hermiston, a native of Kingston, and Joseph C. Kilgour entered the firm, which after the British custom, retained the old familiar name.  In 1897 Mr. Campbell retired and the business was continued along the same line until last year, when a division took place, Mr. Hermiston taking the hardware and tinsmith section.  This includes stoves, ranges, furnaces, hot air and steam heaters etc.  Mr. Hermiston makes a specialty of galvanized iron cornice work, and has decorated many of the leading business blocks in Cornwall, among which might be mentioned the Turner Block, Glengarry Block, Iron Block, the Ontario Bank, the Rossmore, etc.  He has recently completed the very extensive system of piping in the new Dundas mill of the Canadian Colored Cotton Mills Co., as well as a large quantity of similar work in the other mills.
      Mr. Hermiston is a practical man, understanding every detail of the business, and consequently has been able to give universal satisfaction.  This accounts in a great measure for his being recognized as one of Cornwall's most solid and reliable citizens.
