** Hereafter the furniture and undertaking business of H. B. Christine, or Christine Brothers, will be known as [[Christine & Danford]]. Mr. Christine has for some time been looking for a person to whom he could sell an interest in, the establishment owing to the fact that the business has grown to such an extent that he found it impossible to look after all the details and management, and feeling satisfied that in Mr. J.
