Documents

This location is one of the oldest hotel sites of this city, and three years ago, who overhauled and refurnished it through-the house was occupied by Mr. Yoder and his family about out. They set an excellent table and make every effort to secure the comfort of guests, and this house has regained its country custom, secured a liberal share of the traveling public and many permanent boarders. Its regular rates are $1.00 per day, with like reasonable rates for regular boarders. There is a good feed stable in connection, and the best of care is guaranteed to stock. Mr. Yoder is a practical business man, and was for some years engaged in mercantile pursuits and hotel business at Doylestown, O. [2]
