The name of the McGehee Mayo Co.
naval stores operators, was changed t,
the Mayo Turpentine Co. The reason
for the change is that Mr.. Nathal
Mayo bought out the interests of tn
other stockholders. For years Mr.
Mayo has been identified with the tur
pentine business of the state and i
looked upon as an authority on thi
subject. The policy of the Mayo Tur
pentine Co. will be identical as that o
the late company. The deal just con
summated represents a large outlay
but the consideration is not mentione
in the transaction. The headquarter
which were formerly at Belleview hav
been moved to Summerfield, whicl
means a great deal for this town.
