"Honaker & Lewis is the style of the newest firm in Owenton. It is composed of Fritz Honaker and Joe Lewis, two of our enterprising and accommodating citizens. They will hold forth in the Glasscock's building next door the Littrell's, in Court street, and will run a first-class meat, restaurant, and grocery store, Homemade candies, fruits and vegetables of all kinds will be kept fresh on tap at all times. Mr. Honaker was at one time associated with Mr. Barthel, the baker, and is a practical candy maker. Mr. Lewis is the proprietor of the Farmers Hotel, but expects to retire from this business the first of the year." News-Herald, December 14, 1906. |
