J. T. A. Gauthier
Prominent among the leading establishments located in Cornwall there is none more useful or more
in keeping with the needs of the town and vicinity, than the hay, flour and feed house of J. T. A.
Gauthier, which located in the old Kilgour Block, near the Town Hall. This stand has been a flour
and feed house for more than a generation, being originally conducted by the late R. M. Arthur, since
whose death it has had a variety of proprietors, coming into Mr. Gauthier's hands about two years ago.
Mr. Gauthier is a native of Glengarry County but has been a resident of Cornwall since his childhood.
Previous to engaging in the flour and feed business, he conducted several other mercantile enterprises.
To-day he has a well appointed store in which will be found a well selected stock of choice family
supplies in the line of provisions. The best quality of baker's flour is kept as well as all kinds
of mill. feed. Mr. Gauthier's trade in flour is about the largest in Cornwall and he frequently
receives two car loads a week. An extensive trade is also done in hay, oats and other grain.
He has a conveniently arranged shop and warehouse where his stock is always on hand.
Adhering strictly to the principles of integrity and industry, which have been conspicuous features
of his business life, Mr. Gauthier has won the esteem and respect of all with whom he has been brought
in contact and relations once entered in with this house, invariably become permanent and in all cases
satisfactory.
