They took stock on Monday and the same day removed the stock to Mr Hammond's shop where he will dispose of it at prices that will make it go rapidly. Mr Cox's selling out came as a great surprise to most people who did not know that he had contemplated do- ing so. He does not know as yet what he will do. He may or hemay not leave town. We trust he may be able to stay with us.
