Knoxville Chronicle, Sunday: " The
Southern Express Company has been
fortunate in securing the services OF
Mr.. Chas. l.. N. Read, of this city, as
agent at Morristown, where the busi-
ness of the express company is rapidly
increasing, and Will, ere long, assume
large proportions. He has just been
appointed to supply the vacancy oc-
casioned by the resignation of Mr..
John P. Moffett. The company, we
are confident, will find in Mr.. Read an
agent thoroughly capable, competent
and reliable. 10 all this section no
one could have been selected SO emf
nently fitted for that special work. He
needs no commentator in that vicin-
ity, where he is favorably known -
Which just and deserved compliment
to Charlie Read we very cordially en-
