    CLARENCE M. LIGGETT, a prosperous real estate dealer and insurance agent,
  with offices at No. 8 Court House avenue, Carlisle, is a native of the city,
  where he was born July 13, 1871, a son of Jacob L. and Emma L. (Leidig)
  Liggett. The father is now deceased, but the mother resides in Carlisle.
    
    Mr. Liggett's life has been spent in Carlisle, where he was reared and
  attended school until he was seventeen years old, when he accepted a
  clerkship in the store of J. W. Plank, remaining there for eighteen months.
  He then removed to Philadelphia and took a clerkship in the office of a
  wholesale iron, steel and tin plate importing firm, with which he remained
  two years. Returning to Carlisle, he opened an office at his present address
  and established himself in a real-estate and insurance business, meeting with
  remarkable success. He represents the leading fire insurance companies, and
  also conducts a large realty business, attending to conveyancing and kindred
  business, and is most justly regarded as one of the leading young business
  men of Carlisle. Politically he is a Democrat, and has served as treasurer of
  the board of poor directors, and secretary of the York & Gettysburg railroad,
  of which he was one of the incorporators.
    
    On Oct. 25, 1900, Mr. Liggett was married to Miss Annie L. Robertson, of
  Philadelphia, daughter of Henry E. and Oella Z. (Dunn) Robertson. Two
  children have been born of this union, namely, Oella Isabel and Clare
  Robertson. Religiously, they affiliate with the Evangelical Lutheran Church
  and are very prominent in that body. Their pleasant home is located at No.
  654 North Hanover street, Carlisle.
