C. T. McCue
C. T. McCue is a native of Wabash, Ind., where he was born June 12, 1858. His parents are both dead. He came to Mansfield Dec. 2, 1878, to take the agency for the Cincinnati Enquirer. At that time there were no daily papers published in Mansfield and as "Tom" was a hustler, he worked up a big list of subscribers and it became a profitable business for him. Several years ago he opened a cigar store in the Wiler House block, which has been headquarters for horsemen and whenever a man is wanted who is fond of talking about horses he can usually be found at McCue's. This naturally followed because Mr. McCue is a devotee of the turf and in his time has owned some good horses. He was for several years secretary and is now treasurer of the Mansfield Trotting Association and is the president of the Natural Gas trotting circuit. He has always taken great interest in the meetings on the Mansfield track and has always contribute to their success by his energy, enthusiasm and experience. He has given up all other matters of late to devote his full time to the interests of the Mansfield Cash and Package Carrier company, of which he is secretary and manager. He is a member of the city board of elections and the vice president of the board. Mr. McCue and Miss Ada Slanker, of Wadsworth, were married Nov. 26, 1879, and they are the parents of two bright little girls, Maudie and Ruth. Mr. McCue resides at 51 West First street.
