 As stated, last week, two attachments were placed upon the Church Record Co.'S property by Merriam of New York and Frederick Bronson and a keeper placed in charge. Merriam's claim, which was for Sl700, was settled and arrange ments made to liquidate MT Bronson's $500 claim. Last week, however, two more attachments, each for $350, were placed on the property by Northrop Bros. and Charles Jennings. The Church Record was partly off the press when work was stopped and the entire edition will probably be lost, although permis- sion to proceed with the work was given. The Advertiser, after the type was set, was badly pied, Saturday morning, by New York workmen who were removing the presses and equipments. A keeper remained in charge, while 10 or 12 New , York workmen dismantled the office, packing up type and cases and taking apart the presses, for shipment to New York, where the business is to be contin- ued, Mir Merriam, the paper dealer, hay ing become interested in the company. Mir Adams, who has labored long and earnestly in behalf of the Church Rec ord, will probably continue as editor, while the business management will be in New York. The Church Record will be regularly issued from the New York office and it is said that the Advertiser will also be printed there and mailed to subscribers, the local news being sent down at the last moment. While sorry , to learn that the office was to leave Southport, the people are glad that pub l lication is to be continued.
