of the town free of charge. Mr. Gianniny
is a native of Albemarle County,
and is a descendent of probably the

Thomas Jefferson, Mr. Gianniny is a
self made man in every respect. At
the age of eleven years he determined to

grocery house. He worked hard,
saved money and in time began business
for himself. Fraternally Mr.
Gianniny is a prominent member of
the Elks.
