leading sellers as well as the leading buyers.

and a force second to no one to do the work. The high toned and good natured Sam Watkins
will be auctioneer and floor manager, W. G. Bryan and W. James Webb will weigh your to
bacco and make the figures.
We, want to thank you, one and all, kindly for the liberal patronage you have given us for
the past ten years and hope that we may receive from you even a larger patronage this year
than ever before. We are ready for tobocco whether primed or stalk cured, We wilJ do
business at the same place, Farmers Warehouse We have not sold the Farmers Warehouse
to the Seaboard R. R. Go. as has been reported and removed to the Minor warehouse, we
bought ah interest in the Minor worehouse, it was repaired simply to use a storage ware
house to store our hogsheads in so that we might have plenty of room. . Bring us your first
load of tobacco that you put on the market and we wili convince you that we will get you the
highest market prices, Our accommodations will be better than ever before. Again thank
ing you for all past patronage, we beg to remain, Yours to serve,
