Chesbro began operating a drugstore on the
corner of North and Main Streets (Loomer's Opera
House Block) in 1890. Before that, he had been a
clerk for Doctor Fred Rogers and an apprentice
for Druggist William Fuller. As part of the
business, the Chesbro brothers (Samuel was a
partner in a drug manufacturing business with
his brother Ernest, a town selectman)

City Drug Store
BottleThe City
Drug Store was started by Dennis Shea. James
Courtney took over when he bought the building
from Dennis Shea. Joseph H. Lockwood, who owned
several drug stores, bought the store from the
Courtney estate and, a year later, sold it to
Eugene Curran and William Flynn in 1919. At that
time, it became the Curran and Flynn Drug Store.
Interestingly enough, in 1892 a fellow by the
name of Timothy Shea went to a doctor for a
prescription for liquor but was refused. Later,
he saw the doctor at City Drug and threw a
bottle at him. The bottle missed the doctor but
broke several of the City Drug bottles. |

Greenberger BottleAll

Thomas Haran BottlesThomas
Haran was a bottler and ran a saloon from the
Haran Block at 857 Main Street (that was the old
Main St. numbering system - our guess is that it
was the corner of Walnut and Main). At one time,
he was the Foreman of the Montgomery Hose
Company Number Two on Jackson St.
