We learn by a Britton exchange that
the Britton Lumber Co., which has for
the past eighteen or nineteen years been
doing business in Marshall county, with
ID. T. Hindman as president and bust
ness manager, has sold its business to
the j. . +. Erwin Lumber Co. Gov.
Hindman told the writer while in Web
ster attending the district senatorial
convention, that he contemplated going
out of active business, but we expressed
a doubt as to his sincerity. We are
glad to note this as the gentlemen has
earned the right to a rest after his long,
energetic and successful career in bust
ness, and to spend the declining years
of his life in the enjoyment of the
fruits OF the labor of his early years.
May his days be Icing and his enjoyment
the fullest, is the wish of many Web
ster friends.
