~ I- f *? -

When you sell your tobacco and get the cash you .
naturally feel like you are at liberty to trade where you
please, and under ordinary circumstances- no one will. say
you nay. But suppose some merchant in Roxboro has ?
carried you through the summer months while yo.u were
making that crop. Don t you think it would be manly.-ta
give that merchant your trade, especially, when he will
sell you merchandise just as cheap afe the same goods can
be bought elsewhere? ? ?
