The Griffin Daily News. Griffin, Georgia

Col. Frank Ison closed up his bar last night and retired from business on 
account of his health. He was probably the oldest businessman in Griffin, having

commenced business here on Monday, May 4, 1844, and being in business ever since

except during the war and a couple of years afterward. While it is his health 
that compels him to retire, since he suffers from a severe fall received in his 
yard a couple of weeks ago, he is fortunately the possessor of a sufficient 
competency, mostly in Griffin real estate, to live comfortably the rest of his 
life.
