Appleton is located in the South,
Eastern part of Lawrence County, the

tile establishment of Hall Kelton & Co.,
who carry stock of $50, 100000 and
this stock includes everything that can
be found in first class dry goods
grocery, Hardware and drug store.
We have one post office, one rural
route that was established September
Is, 1905, one to be established March
|, 1905. The route that was established
September 10Th is pa miles long,
serves about 80 families, covers parts of
two states, two counties and two districts
in Lawrence County, and one beat in
Lauderdale County Alabama. Route
No. 2 will be l45 miles long, will serve
76 families and will extend into Law
renee and Giles counties in Tennessee
and Lauderdale and Limestone coun-
ties in Alabama. Can any other route
in Lawrence County beat that and be
no longer. / think not
The health of this community is very
