stopped over a day in Atlanta, making
our headquarters, while there, at the Ma
tionaI Hotel, which is conducted by Col.
D, u. Sloan and son. Col. Sloan is well
known in Anderson, where he has many
friends. The National has recently been
thoroughly renovated, and now ranks as
one of the best hotels in Georgia. The
rooms are neats clean and elegantly fur
nished, and the fare, which is the best the
market affords, is prepared in the very
best manner. The rates are two dollars
per day, and you pay for what you eat
and not for style. Mr.. B. P. Sloan, who
Is also we'll known in our midst, is one of
the clerks in the hotel. Whenever any of
or people visit Atlanta we advise them
TO stop at the National. Col. Sloan, being
q native Carolinian, has warm place in
Y his heart for South Carolinians, and takes
special delight in ministering to their
comforts and pleasure.
