In August, 1900 the Paulding Journal mentioned that the Model Furniture and Undertaking store is moving to the Straw Block on the east side of the square.

 
In September, 1901, The Paulding Journal mentioned that Frank Roberts is moving his grocery store to the Cullen Block
 

 
On November, 1890 The Paulding Journal mentioned the following:
The young ladies of the M. E. Church will be having an oyster supper in the French block next Friday
Mr. and Mrs. L. R. Wilted are opening a dry goods and millinery store in the French Block.


In December, 1891, The Paulding Journal mentions the following:
About one o'clock on the morning of the first, fire was discovered back of the Eustache harness shop on Perry Street.  The fire bell could not be used and the alarm had to be sounded by a man running through the streets yelling "Fire".  The fire engine was hauled to the scene but it would not work.
     Eleven stores and one bank were completely burned out.  They were mostly old frame buildings across the streets to prevent their catching on fire.  Eventually they got the fire engine thawed out and it was used to prevent the spread of fire to the Thompson House.  Lost to the blaze were:  Potter's Bank; the Hamilton House Hotel; Tapsico's barber shop; Coon's meat market; Hubble's restaurant; Snow's drug store; Hudson Brothers grocery; Mrs. Davis' millinery; J. C. Rice's feed store;  Potter and Brumbaugh; Eustache's harness shop; and the Law Office and residence of Col. S. R. Mott.  The various firms are seeking new quarters in town.  A new fire bell is definitely needed.
