A very early Bluffton business card
Readers of the Icon's Maple Grove ghost story will find this business card (we're showing the front and back) of interest.
It's the card of M.M. "Dode" Murray who was one of the Murray quadruplets - the only ones ever born in Bluffton. Here are three, at the time known as the Murray tripletts. Lloyd, the fourth brother died at birth.
The Murray tripletts were nicknamed Med, Hod and Dode. M.M., in the business card, was mayor of Bluffton from 1918 to 1922. He was also for a time, Bluffton postmaster.
He was also a player in the Maple Grove ghost story (click here to read).
The quads were born Jan. 22, 1868.
