Alfred T. Wetmore
Dealer in Choice Groceries and Provisions, 55 Harvard Street, Dorchester.
The grocery and provision store of A. T. Wetmore, at No. 55 Harvard Street, Dorchester, is regarded as one of the model mercantile establishments of the locality and is liberally patronized by the householders in the neighborhood. The store was instituted ten years ago by Harry R. Stone, Mr. Wetmore being the manager for the proprietor, and was continued by the original owner until four years ago, when it came into the possession of Mr. Wetmore. T he salesroom is neat and well arranged and contains a full line of staple and fancy groceries, teas, coffees, spices, butter, cheese, eggs, canned goods of all kinds, crackers, cereals, flour, sugar, salt. vinegar, pickles, rice, breakfast and luncheon dainties, all kinds of creamery products, fresh fruits and vegetables. etc. Only the highest grade of goods is admitted to the stock and the quality of each article is fully guaranteed to be just as it is represented to be. The establishment is a favorite one with house wives to trade in, for they are certain of the quality and general excellence of what they purchase and are perfectly satisfied with the price they pay for it.
Fair charges, good weight. generous measure and courteous and efficient service are the watchwords of the store and are strictly lived up to.
Mr. Wetmore is most favorably known in all parts of the locality and is popular everywhere. As the manager for his predecessor, he won the affections of the community and now, as sole proprietor, he still retains their good will. He is highly esteemed.
