Terry in the same capacity in 1914; that employer's business was Terry's Drug Store. By 1915 he was listed as a photographer but with no associated business address. In the 1918 business directory he was working as a clerk for a grocery store. His death registration record states he had worked in the lumber industry all his life and had last worked at the business in 1957.
