1881 ALS Julius Basinski* Miles City, MT to Henry Elling* "..Returing $2,000.."
*Henry Elling was born in Germany December 9, 1842. At the age of 15, he was orphaned and with his younger brother, immigrated to the United States. Henry initially lived in Missouri, where an older brother had previously established himself. By 1863, Henry was working in the mercantile business in Colorado when he learned of the new gold strikes in the Idaho Territory. He arrived in Virginia City, MT in early summer of 1864, and opened a general mercantile store on Wallace Street. Henry soon expanded and prospered with investments in mining, livestock operations, property acquisitions, the franchise for electrical service for Bozeman and, most notably, widespread banking interest. By 1876, Henry was well established as one of the wealthiest men in Montana.
Julius Basinski operated a large, well advertised general store on Main Street in Helena, MT in the 1870’s and opened a store in Miles City, MT in 1882. In 1893, there was a notice in a Bozeman, MT newspaper informing the public that the business would be liquidating due to a pending retirement.
