A FRIEND. LEGAL NOTICES NOTICE In the Civil Action pending in the Superior Court of Granviiie County entitied "L. F. King vs. J. Robert Wood", I was appointed by the Court as Receeiver to take over ail of the books, accounts and merchandise, be longing to or alleged to belong to the said King and Wood; to audit the books of accounts: to collect all notes ahd other evidences of debbt due for pianos, organs, victrolas and musical accessories sold by the said King and his son under a contract between said Wood and said son. It is impossible lor nte to personally collect the noteg {and accounts due for these pianos, {organs, victrolas and musical acces sories, and I have therefore appointed J. Rooert Wood to take these collec . tions for me, as such Receiver. The said Wood is under bond to me, as Receiver, to account for all collec tions. Rallies owing any note or account !for pianos, organs, victrolas and musical accessories are requested to call at the store of J. Robert Wood in Oxford and make settlement with him. This business must be settled, and parties, who are delinquent with their } payments, will be reported to the [Courts for instruction as to bringing suits against them. T. C.

Automobiles had pot been made or thought of. Today there are thousands in Granville county alone.
