Closing of Mason & Co Grocery Sparks West Side Shock
A sheriff's warrant at HM o'clock led to the abrupt closure of F. W. Mason & Co's grocery on the West Side, due mainly to unpaid rent. The firm, once a credit lifeline for workers, faced payer pressure as $600 was awarded to G. W. Clark, owner of the building. Mason kept quiet on future plans while a public sale and local notices promised discounted goods as the business assets are liquidated.
