    "Andrew J. Mercer has been identified with the stock business and farming in Montana for over thirty years, and has acquired a large amount of property and other interests in Richland County.  His ranch and farm are six miles southeast of the Town of Sidney, which is his post office.

    Mr. Mercer was born at Maryville, Nordaway County, Missouri, April 29, 1870, a son of W. F. and Clarinda (Wilson) Mercer. . . . On account of the unsettled conditions [in Missouri during the Civil War] W. F. Mercer and his four brothers spend the years 1862-63 in Virginia City, Montana.  W. F. Mercer in March, 1865 returned to Missouri. . . .
