George THOMASSY, formerly of McDonald, has purchased the WILSON livery barn property near the Burgettstown railroad station and will open a general store. The property will be repaired and put in condition for a first class store. Mr. THOMASSY has been in the store business nearly all his life and has picked Burgettstown as one of the coming towns of the Panhandle section, owing to the industrial development that is being made there. For many years Mr. THOMASSY was engaged with the Federal Supply Company and later was manager of the Etna Supply Company. It is the intention of Mr. THOMASSY to open a first-class general merchandise store.
