Bloomington (IN) Courier, Oct 19, 1876, p. 3.

The undersigned would respectfully inform the citizens generally that we
have bought the "old reliable meat shop of Alexander & Wilson." We have
secured the services of Michael Gabbert, the prince of butchers, who will
take pleasure in cutting the choicest steaks for their numerous customers.

We have bought some 30 head of the finest cattle in the county, and we are
in daily receipt of choice hogs which we intend to keep our shop stocked
with and offering our customers at the very lowest cash prices. Call and
examine our stock, and we will please you for we mean business.

Tate & Payne
