10 prevent what the Tobacco Association
deemed fancied from becoming real in-
plry 70 the country a meeting of the Asso-
citation has been held in connection with
largc assembly of the citizens, at which 1t
was voted that the banking institutions of
Danyille are in sound, solvent, and reliable
condition, and had made no misuse OF the
tlcposits entrusted to them, and that they
they should be sustained and upheld in
every way consistent with honor and fair
dealing. And q word of cheer vas sent out
10 the people of the surrounding counties OF
Virginia and North Carolina, and the hope
expressed that after brief season--a few
days of trial-they would be welcomed
anew to the pleasant and profitable business
relations which have so long existed between
them and the business men Of Danyille.
