residence: Clinton Twp

William Messick, liveryman, is a native of McComb, Illinois, and was born May 12, 
1859. When he was two years old his parents came to Henry County, Missouri, 
settling in Clinton, and it was here that William was reared and educated. In 
1873 he entered the employ of S. Blatt, with whom he remained until September, 
1880, when he engaged in the livery business. He is now enjoying a most liberal 
and successful trade, having twenty-eight rigs and thirty-seven head of horses, 
constituting about as well an equipped stable as there is in Clinton. Mr. Messick 
deserves great credit for making himself what he now is. Starting in life with 
nothing, he has worked himself up by hard labor to his present position.
