Contrast in Pomeroy Business Is Disclosed

POMEROY-Wide variances will be seen when comparing the old 1874 Directory of Pomeroy and the new directory now being compiled throughout the village. There were 19 churches listed in the old directory, some of them not supporting regular pastors however. The town was enjoying a height of industry about 64 years ago which is clearly shown by 16 dry goods stores being listed in the old directory in direct contrast to the present number. Twenty-five saloons held sway over the town and five hardware stores were thriving at that time. Of the four drug stores, one still remains, that being the Reed Drug Store, still in the same location. Six dress makers were listed in the business directory, two cigar factories, two carriage and wagon shops, two breweries, and cooper shop. It is interesting that while most businesses have declined since the early days the profession of dentistry has increased until, in stead of Dr. D. C. Whaley being the only dentist, Pomeroy now has five active dental offices. Of the three hotels the Remington House still is active although the title has been altered. Many businesses are listed in the old Pomeroy, now unknown, such as sewing machine stores three in number, saddlery and harness shops, and mineral water dealers. There was but one undertaker.
