house, on Forest avenue. By good
business management and iudicious
advertising he worked up, in short
time, successful business, removing
last fall to a business room on Main
street. He says that in removing
from Great Bend he has not a single
item of fault to find with the town or
county, or the people thereof, with
whom he has had satisfactory business
relations. He has, unfortunately,
had continued illness in his family
ever since his residence among US,
and it is his belief that change will
over come that trouble.
We wish Mr.. Dodson success in his
new home, and strongly recommend
him and his estimable lady to the new
home of their adoption, regretting
much lat Great Bend lOoses them.
