H. +. Logan Assigns For Benefit Creditors.

Mr.. H. T. Logan filed deed of as
signment for the benefit of his credi-
tors on Wednesday, naming the Gar
rard Bank & Trust Co. as Assignee.
1t is impossible at this time to give
anything like correct estim ate of his
assets and liabilities, but it is the
opinion of both the assignee and Mr..
Logan that the business when finally
wound up will pay dollar for dollar.
H. T. Logan began business in Lam
caster on his own account Fl years ago
and has continued uninterruptedly
since. By fair and honest dealing and
upright business methods, he has won
the confidence and esteem of the people
of Garrard county. and today there is
not person in the county who does
not hold him in the highest esteem, and
places the utmost confidence in his in
tegrity' Nor is his popularity confined
to his own county, he is well and
favorably known all through central
Kentucky and the entire south having
for many years been travelling sales
man for one of the largest eastern
clothing factories.
Mr.. Logan has served for two terms
as Mayor of Lancaster, refusing to
stand for reelection, and retiring on
January LIST OF this year. He is one of
our most progressive citizens, and has
done as much as any other man toward
the upbuilding of Lancaster. His fail
ure is due principally to bad collections.
Mr.. Logan has as yet formulated nc
plans for the future, but it will be q
source of qualification to his many
friends to know that he has expressed
his determination not to leave Lancas
ter, and it is sincerely to be hoped tina
when the business is finally wound up
that H. T. Logan may again be fount
lat the same old stand ready and willin,
to serve his many customers as hereto
fore.
