The firm occupy three suits of roome over the Farmers Bank, which have been fitted up by their landlord Mr. Emery, to order, and we dare say no law firm in this section of the state are more conveniently or better of- ficed than T. W. Silvers and C. A Denton. The three rooms occupied by the firm are handsomely carpet- ed heated by steam from a furnace in the cellar of the bank, well light- ed and each department, reception, consultation and public office rooms contains handsome desks, book cases filled with complete sets of law books, easy chairs, etc., while the walls are ornamented with hand- | some pictures making their compart- |ments very inviting indeed. The firm also have in their office a new | type writing machine of the latest pattern, which is presided over by Miss Maud Garrison, who acts in the | capacity of stenographer and clerk | for the firm. Messrs. Silvers & Den- ton stand high in the legal profes- | 8ion and their prompt manner of | transacting business and their un- | questioned reliability has gained for | them a large and lucrative practice, all of which is merited. The Trwzs wishes them continued prosperity.
