This is the west side of Pike Street - present-day Main Street - looking north. In 1907, grocery business was big. There are at least three grocers that can be seen in this photograph. Lewis H. Bunnell was located in the left building with the overhanging roof. The 1910 U. S. Census showed that he was 49 and was a merchant. The 1920 U. S. Census lists him as living in Lebanon, and that he was Monroe's postmaster. On November 29, 1930, Lewis H. Bunnell died of a gunshot wound, which was deemed by the coroner to be homicidal. Further down the street was I. O. Byers's store. He sold groceries and hardware, and later had a farm. At that time, the other grocer was J. H. Sigg. His store was further down the street. Sigg and Bunnell were both postmasters. One was the postmaster for a while, and then the other.</div>
