      HENRY A. MINIUM, a prosperous business man of Carlisle, Pa., and dealer
  in musical instruments at No. 1 East High street, that city, has been engaged
  along this line since 1901 in Carlisle, and in other locations since 1892. His
  stock includes a full line of the best makes of pianos, organs and smaller
  musical instruments, and his field of operation extends over Cumberland
  county.
      
      Mr. Minium was born in Monroe township, Cumberland county, Dec. 20, 1866,
  a son of W. C. and Lucinda (Diller) Minium, both of whom are living. Like many
  country boys he was reared upon the farm, receiving a good education in the
  local schools, and learned the trade of painting, to which he gave his
  attention for seven years. About that time his mind reverted to his present
  business, in which he embarked, and whichhe has carried on very profitably
  ever since. Fraternally, he is a member of the M. W. of A., No. 5472; Royal
  Arcanum, No. 502; and the Knights of Pythias.
      
      On Jan. 19, 1899, Mr. Minium was married to Elizabeth Ellen Zeigler,
  daughter of Jacob Zeigler, of Middlesex township, this county. They reside in
  their pleasant home at No. 154 North Pitt street, where they welcome their
  many friends with a gracious hospitality. Mr. Minium is justly regarded as
  one of the leading young business men of the city, and is highly esteemed by
  all.
