Deasy & Handy.
Biographical notes:
Deasy and Handy began on 18 November 1868 as a "variety" store. Both Mr. Deasy and Mr. Handy were former sea captains. Fred Cole was Postmaster, and the post office shared the same location as the store. The store was taken over by the "Cole Brothers" in late 1888 till 1892 when John B. Cole became the sole proprietor, and for awhile he was also Postmaster. About 1903 the business was taken over by Louis P. Cole, and he was also Postmaster.
