CITY LIMITS North of Twenty-second Street; east of Wood; and south of North Avenue.
WARD BOUNDARIES: 1st-South-Side east of Clark Street and north of Twenty-second Street; 2d-South-Side west of Clark Street to the River and north of Twenty-second Street; 3d-South of W. -Randolph Street to Twenty-second Street, west of the River to Wood Street; 4th-West of the River to North-Wood Street, north of West-Randolph Street to West-North Ave.; 5th-North-Side, north of the River to North Avenue, west of North-Clark Street; 6th-North-Side, north of the River to North Avenue, east of North-Clark Street.
REMARKS.-It has been the design to include in this Directory the names of all persons and all firms in the City; to arrange them alphabetically; and in every instance to give the correct spelling. There may be cases, however, where names may have been
accidentially inserted in the wrong connection, and cases also of incorrect orthography. Abbreviations, which occur only in a very few words, will readily be understood: bet stands for between; res for residence; bds for boards; Rand for Randolph; Mad for Madison; Wash for Washington; etc. The word street in most instances is omitted. The place of business uniformly precedes the residence.
Very few of the buildings were numbered, except Lake Street; the numbers now given are those of the present, (1896).
The deaths in most cases, except as otherwise stated, occurred in Chicago.
