~ O N I q Il o

'I>HE Subscriber in retiring from the Depot
concern, respectfully begs leave TO extend to
ms friends and the public in general, his most
nearly and sincere thanks, for the very liberal
patronage which has been bestowed upon Il for
the past three years. His only reason for with
drawing from it is, that he is advanced in years,
has great deal of other business on hand, and
wishes to see his Son established in business.
Having every confidence in the parties compos-
ing the new firm, and in their ability 10 manage
the business properly, he trusts that he is not
asking too much of his friends and the public in
general, for continuance of their business with
tue new concern. ISAAC WOOD.
