The finale of the entire matter will end this week when we have the sheriff to lay off his homestead and becure an order to sell Mr. Watford's land. The original, bill of $4.85 has already nearly doubled itself by the addition of costs, but as Postmaster Watford isn't putting up much of a kick ai.d doesn't seem to be in a hurry to set tle his indebtedness with us we ought to be, and are, entirely satisfied with the proceedings so far as they have gone.

To The Public: A short time ago knowing tbat there was not a General Insurance Office in this town and realizing the necessity of such I decided to establitib an office hoping to make it beneticial to the people as well as a convenience, believing that in time I could command the. confidence, and at least a share of the business, of our people, thus keeping atrhome a large amount of business that has been going to agencies in other towns. My. first aim was to secure the backing of some of the best Companies with sufficient capital to take care of all business that I might secure and give to the insured safe protection at adequate rates. That I have succeeded in obtaining a large sharo of the business my books will show, indeed my suc cess has far exceeded all anticipations. That the insuredjis fully protected no one has cause to question. That all just claims are speedily adjusted the letters ablow will testify. Thanking all my menus, patrons and the public general lyjfov their confidence and liberal support and asking a continuance of the same onmerit alone. I am yours yery respectfully, W. FLETCHERS USB0N.
