We hase withdrawn frombdsiness in the
city of Aberdeen. II
The cause of our doing so is so well
known that it is unnecessary to mention it
in this card. tL2.tA
When we came here we found hearty
welcome extended to us by the whole COM
munity. All our intercourse with the peo-
pie of this city and the surrounding cOun-
try has been pleasant and profitable, and
now that we are about to retire from your
its people and kind remembrance of them
We have every reason to believe that the
best wishes of the entire public will follow
us where we go. 1t has been matter of
book store which, during the very first year
of its business career, was known through
out the United States to have the highest
standing and credit of any mercantile house
in the State of Mississippi.
We regret very much that We are COM
PEELED to leave, but we are happy that we
can give to our successors-H. q. Buchanan
Il Co., business established upon sure
foundation with every prospect of success,
and enjoying as such full confidence and
favor.
To all those who by so many acts have
proved their friendship, we can leave a fer
vent "God bless you,' and to the few who
consider themselves our enemies we have
% say it is their choice not ours. We leave
hem to their folly or to their wisdom,
which ever time may prove.
Ifany one has wronged us, let him settle
the matter with his own conscience and ii
will be satisfactory to us. If we have I'M
justly offended any one, we humbly ask
pardon.
If the county Treasurer, per Sc, or thro
his closest friend has unjustly discriminate
ed against us, as we believe he has done
and thereby contributed cause for our re.
moval from Aberdeen, we leave him for thu
present all emolument, honor and enjoy
ment he may derive from it.
One of the most agreeable features of oul
business here was that we were not COM
PEELED to depend upon the members of any
particular church, or upon some certain
grade of society for our patronage, but
have found broad, liberal spirit extended
to us by all denominations, all classes, and
by both white and black.
Our Ledger is nearly closed, and it vii
bear comparison with anyone ever kept il
any country, where the same amount o
credit was given.
Our accounts are nearly all balanced ant
most of the few remaining open will be pait
on presentation.
We can safely say to any one Wishing t.
engage in business South, and desiring tt
establish himself in town where honor i
the basis of credit, that he cannot find u bet
ter place than Aberdeen, Miss.
Our books show that the experiment O
selling goods cheaper than they are sold
anywhere else in the State was not failure
We wish for Aberdeen the future it de
serves, and must enjoy. AS for ourselves
our every effort to please has been appreci.
ated; every progressive step we have taken
has been measured and approved every
enterprising experiment we have tried has
met with encouragement and cOmpensa-
ton; our energy has been applauded; OIL
earnest attempt to be OF some value to the
city has been stimulated by most honor
able rivalry on the part of other merchants
our business principles have been recogniz.
ed as just and honorable; and our. invest.
ment is satisfactory to us. What more can
we ask, except your continued confidence
and esteem?
