* In most cases, except as otherwise stated, the deaths occurred in Chicago. 

These remarks were on the first page of the listing of residents.  It is included here for users of each page.

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 accidentally 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).
