| From History of Beloit, Iowa |
The principal store in the place is the 'Pioneer Store,' which was established by Messrs. Goetz and Thorson in April 1871. These gentlemen have gradually worked up a good trade and are now doing a good business. They keep an excellent stock of dry goods, groceries and provisions, constantly on hand, which they are selling at very low prices.
These gentlemen have their respective offices of County Auditor and County Recorder in the back part of the store room, where they keep the various books of the County belonging to their offices, and which require their attention a considerable portion of the time. They also transact a general real estate business, and are agents for the Cunard and Inman lines of ocean streamers. |
