Here is an interesting article.
One person is prohibited from owning more than one store in a town.
By law of 7 April 1841, merchants are prohibited from having sales in more than one place in the same town. This decision should be understood as meaning that the same merchant may not have more than one sales outlet for the same type of merchandise, but the other thing is not prevented, as the law is interpreted and enforced, from a merchant being able to trade in more than one shop, if he sells his type of merchandise in each place (trade in departments).
Jón Ólafsson, editor and poet, was the half-brother of the poet Páll Ólafsson. He was one of the most colorful journalists in Icelandic history. His journalistic career began in 1868. He fled the country for a second time due to dissatisfaction with the Icelandic government in 1872, this time to America. At that time, the western expeditions were beginning and Jón showed great interest in them. He had the idea that Icelanders should acquire land in Alaska. He worked to gain support from the American government for this idea and met with President Grant himself. The American government was interested in the matter because they had recently purchased Alaska and were being criticized for it. They were therefore keen to find some use for the scheme. Nothing came of this, however, and Jón returned to Iceland in 1875. He then went back to the West and became editor of Lögberg and then Heimskringla. Jón undoubtedly played his part in the gossip that was common between the newspapers. The editors were at their lowest ebb when they accused each other of being responsible for the death of the poet Gest Pálsson, who was the editor of Heimskringla in 1890-91. It is certain that Gestur did not like quarrels and did not feel well in Winnipeg. He was on the verge of returning to Iceland when he fell ill and died. In 1893, Jón published the monthly magazine Öldina, which was an excellent cultural publication and published selected poetry, educational material and cultural discussion. Stephan G. wrote extensively in Öldina. Jón returned to Iceland and sat in parliament for a while. Jón was a very good poet and he would have liked to cultivate that talent better. But he was an ardent entrepreneur and therefore had little time for writing. He participated in literary discussions and was, to say the least, a harsh critic.
