CLOSING OUT ENTIRE STOCK.
E. D. Sheffield Co. to Sell Their Stock
Immediately.


Having accepted a position with the
Bank of Commerce, made vacant by
the resignation of Mr.. Lott Warren, I
am compelled to close out the entire
stock of goods of the e, d. Sheffield
Co. at once so that I may enter into
my bank position by Jan. 1st. In
order to accomplish this I realize that
we must sacrifice the goods to get rid
of them in so short time. This we
will do. We all know that merchant
who is in business to stay must charge
a reasonable profit on his goods or nj
timately fail. I propose to sell out our
entire stock at less than New York
cost, and much less than any merchant
can afford. 1t will pay you to buy
now at least year 8 supply. You will
not have such an opportunity again
soon, Come and see us right away be-
fore the stock is badly broken. AT
present our stock of shoes and cloth
ing is complete, and quality second to
none in this city. While our dry
goods stock is small there are yet
many fine pieces of goods to be dis
posed of. We will sell the entire stock
in lump or in lots, at retail, or, in
fact, any way to suit the buyer. Re-
member, this is your chance now to
get what you want for this stock must
be sold right away. Very respectful
ly, E. D. SHEFFIELD.
