It was sixteen years ago St. Pat- rick’'s day that Mr. Murray opened the present fine store in his new block at the corner of Main and Church streets. The day fell on a Saturday at that time, and the event was one of especial importance. Thirty-one vears ago Mr. Murray’s force comprised six clerks: today it numbers forty-two. The company was reorganized March 1, 1905, Mr. Mur- ray taking in some of the clerks with him. The company today comprises H. C. Murray, James P. Bath, George E. Gifford, Robert M. Bath and Jo- seph B. Riordan. No mercantile house in the city has seen such a healthy and progressive growth as the H. C. Murray company, and it is the wish of all knowing Mr. Murray that it may continue to expand under his direction for many years to come.
