Notes
Manitowoc Pilot 1896<br /> This is a company which has been very active in its field of usefulness was a radical departure from our oldtime business methods. The success of it was questioned when it was organized but its prosperity demonstrates the good judgement of its organizers. The company deals in salt cement tile lime etc and uses a warehouse 80 x 150 feet. This is located on the dock and also has railroad facilities so its shipping and receiving advantages are the best. Their goods are bought direct from the producers in large quantities so prices are made the lowest. This company is perhaps better known to the general public in their capacity as real estate dealers than the other branch of the business. They own desirable lots in various parts of the city. Prices are made reasonable so it would be well for intending purchasers to consult them before buying elsewhere. The company was incorporated in 1890 and now has the following officers president M Kirwin secretary & manager M H Murphy treasurer Henry Hinrichs and acting manager W E Murphy.
