in that town. B. D. Van Fleet was educated in the common schools and finished at the Geneva High School, after
which he taught school three years and then established the grocery business at Mitchell's Station and at Dublin;
and in 1892 came to Alloway and established the same business. In 1893 he bought the David Trimmer property, and
