JULIUS BERRY.

    This gentleman has been a Coloradoan since 1861. He was born in Wurtemberg,
Germany, April 23, 1841. When sixteen years of age, he came to America. Arriving
first in New York, he went from there to Kansas. He lived in Kansas and in
Missouri about four years. He clerked in a store in St. Joseph, Mo., about two
years. In 1861, he went to Denver, Colo., where he embarked in the clothing
business. After a time, he opened a branch house in Virginia City, which he
continued to 1866. In 1868, Mr. Berry disposed of his business at Denver and
removed to Pueblo. He was married in 1868, September 9, at Cincinnati, Ohio, to
a Miss Hoffman. He opened a clothing house at Pueblo, in partnership with his
brother. In 1874, he purchased his brother's interest, and has since owned and
conducted the business himself. He now carries a very large stock, and has an
excellent custom- doing a business of from $85,000 to $100,000 per year. He has
been eminently successful, and is now connected with some of the most important
enterprises of Pueblo.
