FINE NEW FUNERAL CAR

Mr.. Jacob II. Emerson, our weIl.known
undertaken, has recently purchased a
handsome new funeral car, in fact, the
finest car to be seen anywhere in the state,
with single exception of one as fine in
Wilmington.
1t is of the very latest style, beveled
plate glass, four pillars, with all the
lest devices inside, The The euttira hhoaaT
of the car is richly carved throughout, and
ornamented in front with two large silver
lamps.
The tires are heavily shod with rubber.
1t is magnificent, stylish equipage and

safe distance and magnanimously yield to
the other fellow the privilege of a ride.
