Known then as "Ewald and Pahl, " it began as a furniture and undertaking establishment. Joseph N. Ewald, founder of the store, moved to Tiffin in 1896 from a farm north of the city. He went to work for the furniture retailer, A. J. Henzy Company, as a salesman. Young people of today might wonder at this strange association of seemingly unrelated endeavors.
However, in those days, furniture and funeral directing were commonly combined to the mutual benefit of both, as the same horses could be used to pull the ambulance and hearse as well as the wagons and sleds used to deliver furniture. A familiar sight on the Tiffin streets was "Pete, " the biggest and blackest horse in town, racing out with the Ewald and Pahl ambulance or sedately pulling the black hearse to the tolling of church bells.
The Ewald and Pahl families drove "Pete" on alternate Sundays for their outings in the country. When the automobile arrived on the American scene, Ewald's purchased one of the first trucks in Tiffin. This was in 1913.
