Arnold & Graham

Jas. Arnold and Thomas Graham bought Henry Austin’s grocery and boot & shoe business in December 1890 and took possession on January 1st [FFG 26 Dec 1890; 5] in Austin’s “old stand”. In March of 1891 they purchased “almost the whole” of Hugh McDougall’s stock of boots & shoes when the latter went out of business [FFG 27 March 1891; 4], and in June 1892 they hired Mr. Edward Chambers to paint the front of their store [FFG 17 June 1892; 4]. The partnership with Graham lasted only a couple of years. It disappears from the directories by 1893, but may have lasted until 1895 when it was officially dissolved.
