Michael Henchey.
One of the best known citizens of the North End is Michael Henchey,
whose grocery store is located at the corner of Ninth and Sidney Streets. Mr. Henchey was born
in the County of Clare, Ireland, and came to Canada 25 years ago, locating in Cornwall. He has been
20 years in his present stand and thanks to his Irish wit and shrewdness, thorough1y understands the wants
of the public, and by anticipating their requirements has built up a prosperous business. Mr. Henchey
is an athlete of no mean calibre and many of the old boys will probably remember his feats in Caledonian
sports, some 20 years ago. He has been one of the most faithful adherents and conscientious workers
of the Cornwall Lacrosse Club, on the executive of which he held office for several years.
He is a genial, whole-souled, popular citizen, without an enemy in the world.

G. M. Smith.
One of the most popular grocery houses in Cornwall is that of
G. M. Smith & Co., Marlborough Street. This is amply evidenced by the fact that while his place
of business is in the East End of the town, he has hundreds of customers in every part of Cornwall, who
find that the car fare spent in reaching his store is repaid many times over in the low prices secured.
Mr. Smith makes a specialty of choice groceries and general provisions, and has always the choicest fruit
in season. He is a spot cash man in buying and selling, which is the secret of low prices.
