I apologize to the ladies reading this thread. That was a 1950s remark that I should not have made.

Some pics of the Independence Ice and Creamery Company from 1997, before it became the furniture store. Hasn't changed much, except the awnings and some windows being enclosed.

Thanks for those, I'm still trying to read the rest beyond the obvious 'cottage cheese" and "and butter _ _ _ _" ("milk") ?

How Independence bustled in the days with so many small and medium sized businesses and entrepreneurship interspersed around town.

Asher, proprietor of the hotel. Asher said “Owsley was fighting Erskine DeHoney, another waiter, and I undertook to separate them. Owsley then began to shoot and came toward me in a threatening manner; when I fired at him twice.” Owsley’s, whose injury was slight, was arrested."
