Henry B. Sparks.

Of the various lines whose combined
interests have exerted such a beneficial
effect on our general trade and one of
importance, is that of the electrical contractor
and repairer of automobiles and
bicycles. Actively engaged in this

line in Charlottesville we find Mr.
Henry B. Sparks of 316 West Main
street, and he has the entire field to
himself being with out competition in
this city or vicinity. He is a thorough
mechanic and is an expert in every
branch of the business. Work in the
lines mentioned above is accomplished
at short notice in the most approved
manner at very reasonable and
honest prices. Mr. Sparks has been
established in business since 1901 and
has succeeded in building up a most
prosperous and successful enterprise.
Mr. Sparks was born in Madison
County, but has been a resident of
Charlottesville for many years, during
which time be has gained for himself
a splendid reputation among the people
of this section.
