Grass Valley.
The candy store that bore his
name for.:half a-eentury was started
in 1890 by the late James M. Foley.
Upon his death 16 years ago, his son
the late Vincent V. Foley, who learned the trade under the tutorship of
his father, took over the business.
When he passed away several
years ago, Mrs. Foley began the operation of the store and successfully conducted it. Lately she found: the
work too burdensome and she decided to sell it to the new owners who
have had much experience in this
line of business.
They plan improvements in the
interior of the store and the installation of modern equipment for the
manufacture of ice cream, candy and
other merchandise handled by the
store.
