er-in-law, or her sister-il-law's mother
in-law, or all four, and if so, what rela-

Mr. A. B. Towers has a few words to
say to his friends and customers this week.
1t is useless for US to speak of his large
and well-selected stock of goods. as
every body in Anderson County knows

of the County that in consequence of the
tightness of the money market our mer-

trouble.
