CHRoNICLE is an old friend Of mine
and | would not exchange II for any
other paper in the State"
From G|enloch, in the same county,
another friend writes: THE WIG
AND CHRONICLE Is the best, truest al d
fairest paper ia this section of the
country"
A subscriber at Island Pond, YER
mont, says: admire your fidelity
to Republican principles and the bold
ness with which you stand 10y them
The WIG AND CHRONICLE is u paper
which ought 10 command the supper.
and confluence OF Republicans every
where, and especially of Tennessee
Republican,"
Col. II. G. Fel!ers, Of Greene county,
writes "Pleaee find enclosed s. 30 for

Moses Hagly, # Buford's Station,

An old subscriber IN Sewer county
writes: "Fhe WING AND CHRONl-
Gle grows stronger and stronger in the
confidence Of the people every day.
Continue in The course pursued 10y
you since 1870, when you stood almost
alone as a champion Of Republican
principles among Tennessee uewsp4-
pers, and the WIG AND CHROAICLE
will never tack FOR friends"
We might add many others 10 these,
bu. this will suffice for the
present We thank our friends
for their words Of encourage

their q fi!e.c' We shall continue
to publish = good, reliable, fair, out
