BOOTH, WILLIS H., was born at Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, April 23, 1859; attended the district and high schools, and at the age of fourteen years commenced learning the jewelry business. On the 12th day of August, 1880, came to Sioux Falls with D.J. Turner, and remained in his employ until Mr. Turner’s death, which occurred in the spring of 1885. He then bought the stock of goods of the estate, and since that time has been in business for himself. Mr. Booth is a thirty-second degree Mason and a member of the Elks. He is always genial, social and happy, and one of the most agreeable men to do business with in the city of Sioux Falls.
