The Peppler block, formerly owned by Valentine Stock, was a large, two-storey red brick buildig with a platform running the length of the east side where barrels of salt used to be stored.
Behind the building were a shed and a barn, where cement was kept and chickens used to be processed, which had been take in exchange for goods. Here too, barrels of apple "schnitz" were stamped tight for the Prairie Provinces. Mr. Stock had acquired the business from Klein. The building had been bought at the time of its razing in 1963 from B. C. Ratz, who had acquired it from the Peppler Estate in 1948. It had stood vacant during those years.
It now is the home of Canada Post.
