  C. D. Duff was born in Old Maysville, Illinois, October 16, 1855. After the death of his fath- er, he, then six months old, re- turned with his mother to Tennes- see, in a covered wagon, where he lived until 21 years of age. He then returned to Clay City and was employed as a store clerk by two uncles, R. E. and ,T. N. Duff. After the death of R. E. Duff in 1877, J. N. Duff and C. D, Duff continued the business under the firm name of J. N. Duff & Company until 1888 when C. D. Duff sold bis interest in the store and soon thereafter entered into business with J. T. Evans & Com- pany. In 1907 Dr. J. T. Evans sold his interest in the business to his son, C. D. Evans, and the firm's name was changed to Duff & Evans, which continued business until 1911 when C. D. Evans sold his interest to John W. Duff, at which time the business has been conducted under the firm name of C. D. & J. W. Duff, father and son, and includes a second son.
