LOCAL BUYERS
TAKE TOWN BONDS
WOULD NOT BE THROWN DOWN
Rejected by Foreign Buyers Because
They Feared Technicality IN the
Issue, and Business Men Take Over
the $4,000 Issue.


Incensed because someone notified
Nuvene q Co., purchasers of the $40,
600 bond issue of the Town of Port
Gibson, that there was technicality
in the issue which might call in ques-
ton the bonds which they had bought,
and the subsequent refusal Of the
buyers to accept the bonds, local
business men decided to show their
faith in the validity Of the bonds and
bought the entire issue themselves.
As soon as the Board Of Aldermen
was notified that the Chicago house
had taken fright at the shot which
was fired BY local person who was
opposed to the issue, a member Of the
board suggested that the bonds be
sold locally, and offered to take $1,000
of the issue himself. The suggestion
met with hearty approval, and it was
not long before the board was notified
that the whole issue had been taken.
There is too much money in Port
Gibson for the town TO whine at the
whims of a bonding company. The
town ehowed what It could do when
it bought nearly $500,000 worth Of
bonds and stamps last year.
