Thursday, March 18, 1965 THE McITENRY PLAINDEALER Section One -- l*age Tfriree This treasured picture of Main Street, McHenry, in "the good old days" was given to the Plaindealer by Mrs. W. E.

The first complete building shown on the right was the dry goods store of the late M. J. Walsh. This is. now the site of the West Side Locker. Horses and carriages farther down the street give evidence that this was the transition period leading to the horseless carriage days. -- Per&Qnafd -- Mr. and Mrs. James R.
