In 1890 J. E. Chevrier, who is a native of Vaudreuil, Que., started in the grocery business in a small scale in Cornwall, subsequently conducted the Queen's Hotel for a short time, and then returned to mercantile life, in the spacious premises he now occupies next to the Turner Block. He carries one of the best stocks of groceries in town, besides a full line of glass ware, crockery, lamps, etc. Mr. Chevrier has always catered for the family and farm trade and low prices and prompt delivery of goods have ever been his strong points. His trade has increased steadily until it, is now second to none in town.
      Besides groceries, Mr. Chevrier deals extensively in coal and wood, and supplies a large portion of those commodities used by Cornwall householders
      Mr. Chevrier also does quite a large wholesale business in fruit. He is one of the large buyers at the Montreal trade sales of fruit, and supplies many of the local dealers in town and country. He also does a jobbing business in certain lines of groceries.
      Honesty and fair dealing have brought their reward to Mr. Chevrier, who occupies a beautiful new residence on East First Street.
