Whereas the partnership between
COLLINS and EWING
WILL SHORTLY EXPIRE,
THEY beg the favour of those indebted
to them to make immediate payment, and those
who have any demands on them to call at the store
for settlement.
As they have determined to decline business in the
mercantile line, they will fell great part of their stock
on hand, at prime cost, for cash; those who are pos
sessed of that necessary article will therefore find it
their interest to call at said fto're.
