An Appwreci*ation and Explanation 1 wish to take this opportunity of expressing my appreciation for the wonderful response the people of Bow\,maniville an-d Durhamn County gave me on the occasion of my Fire Sale. The crowds w,,hich packed the store Friday and Saturday were f ar beyond my e-,xpectations. If, was practical impossible to give my patrons the usual attenti on and courteous service which has been my custom under ordinary circumstan- ces. With this explanation 1 feel an apology is unnecessary as ail who attendled the sale will ap- preciate my position. May I also express, in this public way, my sincere thanks to the young men and business as- socates who so willingly and freely came to my assistance byT cooperating in helping move the' stock from one store to the other, arranging the goods and acting as clerks during the rush. ho>ir-s of the sale. Truly, one does not know Wwho his friends really are until trouble overtakes him. PRICES CUT STILL LOWER There is still about $1000 worth of stock left. In order to clear out every article in the store by Saturday night I have made another big reduction in the Fire Sale prices. Come in an-d load up. T]B.
