Illinois. On leaving school he was employed in the grocery store of R. N.
Lloyd for three years, and was afterward employed as clerk in the store of
M. B. Franklin six years. In 1881, he formed a partnership with C. C.

and clothing, under the firm name of Mericle & Hopper. This enterprise has
been very successful.
