A week ago today Mr. and Mrs. Emil Hansen, owners and operators of the Hansen Mercantile Co., Withee (Clark Co., Wis.), for the past 41 years, sold their business to Mr. and Mrs. Ben Mueller and Mr. and Mrs. Jerome LePage. The two ladies will operate the firm, which will hereafter be known as the Withee Mercantile.

The building itself was not involved in the purchase, and the Hansen's will continue to make their home in their living quarters at the rear of the store.
