Kilbun and Hudson, after being in busi-
ness together for more than a quarter of a
century, have sold their stock of Drugs and
Grocerias and rented their building to Philo
Forsyth and Joseph Sage. For more than
year the health Of both Mr.. KilbUln and Mr..
Hudson has been such that neither could
give their business the attention il required,
nor meet the demands and requirements of
their customers: and while it VIII look
strangely to see the name Of another firm
over their door, it is no doubt betterfor them
that they should sell out at this time. They
retire from active business life with the best
wishes of a large circle Of friends who have
dealt with and known them for many years.
