NAVE, the undersigned, Wholesale Grocers and
w Hardware Merchants of the city Of w heling,
take this method of stating to the public that we have
been engaged for many years in the sale Of Nails, and
have bought the brand manufactured by HUNTER,
FLEMING & Co., Of the Virginia Iron Works-that
our sales have not been confined to the city, but have
been extended over a large extent of country, and we
take pleasure in being able to bear testimony to their
uniformly good character and standing abroad-that
for finish and Workmanship they will compare favor
ably with any-but especially for the substantial quail
titles Of strength, stiffness, and soundness, they are I'M
surpassed by any other brand. We also confidently
believe that their mode of manufa cturing nails from
hammered iron, and from the solid slab, is the best
calculated to give strength and t~oughness to the nail.
as we'll as avoid the tendency to flaws and splitting
which are the too common defects Of nails generally.
