Erb

Connersville Daily News, Aug. 1894

Maynard Erb of Fairfield, today purchased the Central Pharmacy from S.O. McKennon, who came here from Illinois two years and a half ago.

The deal was pending yesterday but was not closed till today and although it was known to us, the transaction was not published until the deal was completed.

Mr. Erb is a graduate of pharmacy and comes highly recommended. He will take charge Monday. Mr. McKennan has made a host of friends in this city, who hope to see him remain with us. We wish both men success.

June 1895

Gus Hess retires tonight from the Central Pharmacy, and he will be succeeded by Will Greer, who is well and favorably known to all our citizens. Will has had several years' experience in the drug business in this city and Mr. Erb could not have made a more popular selection for a clerk. The Central Pharmacy will hold its own and we wish it success.

June 1895

S.O. McKennon purchases half-interest in the Central Pharmacy from M.M. Erb.

The stock was all invoiced yesterday. Mr. McKennon took possession this morning and will enter upon active duty in the store. McKennon also owns an interest in the City Pharmacy managed by Gus Hess, but the two drug stores will not be consolidated.

Fred Bowman has taken the position as soda water boy at Central Pharmacy.

November 1895

Scott Thomas sent Maynard Erb a half dozen live catfish yesterday and he has the on exhibition in his show-window aquarium.

November 1895

Mayor Frost and Maynard Erb got 14 quail down in the vicinity of Fairfield yesterday. There seems to be some question as to the exact number in the minds of their friends, but we have made the proper investigation, and he above is authentic.

July 1896

M. Holberg, Fred Doll, Will McNaughton and Maynard Erb left for Hurst's Grove today for two weeks life under canvas. Others will follow later.
