In 18U5 he erected a new building ou Washington street,on shat is now Reading Railway property, anp enlarged hia premises in 1901, taking into partnership bis brother Frank. In 19U2 the railway company purchased their property for station purposes Ou ral Market property at Washington and Ocean streets, where a most successful business has been conducted by them daring tbe past five years. Their mart is the oldest and ‘me ol the beet of tta kind, if not Ihe leading one, in tbia dty. ”A agnate deal” is their motto, and it ha* h:e and fresh vigor infused into it dsily^ John Mecray was married in 18S9, lo Mi** Eunice High, the fruit of their union being tyo daughter* and one non. About the same time, or nearly nitrtleeu year* ago, he was made superintendent of the First I’tcsbyterian Church Sunday-school, and the prosperous condition of the school, still under his guidance, attests his

efficiency.

Frank is secretary of Sunday-school and active in all church work, and treasurer of the Jay, the youngest brother, is also a useful member of the church.
