Mr. Walker first made money in the distillery, Then he bought land to the extent of 8,000 acres in which Wallcerville is emtn•acxd, The Walker husinese also inoludes a brewery, stook farm, where cattle are fattened on the THE BRUSSJiiLS POST refuse from the distillery, end shipped I abroad ; tobecon farts, hop fields, fur. I niture factory, iron works, engine works, railroad and ferry Hues, natural gas fisdds and real estate holdings of a valve me. ning well into the milllutle, lite threw sons ware ell associated with their father in the distillery and kindred anterpritoe, A fair estimate would probably plate the family holdings at 930,000,000, Frank H, Walker, the second sun, is President of a Chicago national bank, and has large statue invested in Miehigan. A few years ago Mr. Walker, probably with a view to preventing litigation between heirs, divided his property between his three sons and one daughter. The Unbar. io Ooverument will, therefore exbraot from the estates, very small sum in the way of a succession tax, If the Walker boys hold together like the Goulds and Vanderbiits, the ohanooe are that the family will in a few years be owe of the wealthiest in North America, AUDITORS' REPORT -010 THE - TOWNSHIP of GREY Fur the Year 189S.
