TIIK subscribers with many thanks fora growing patronage in our j
business, solicit a continuance of the same the coming year.— j
Our stock is equal to any in the country and our facilities are great, j
and we will not spare any expense or pains to procure every luxury j
wanted by our numerous patrons from all parts of the State. When we 1
commenced to build up a market here for all the luxuries of the sea- J
bord which now amounts to about SSOOO per month, our motto
was and is to go ahead and keepahead and not lie outdone by any one. ■
The people desired such a market and we have been nobly sustain
ed by our numerous friends and are daily making new ones in all parts |
flfthe State by selling things cheap. Our stock of Family Gro
ceries. Fruits, Liquors and Cigars, is large and inferior j
to none,—our facilities for getting Shad and Oysters is superior to
any one in the State, and we intend to sell them low, for we have 40
or 50 men daily engaged in procuring them and they must be sold.
We visit Savannah every two weeks and will transact any business
for our friends, they may wish.
We are confident no grocery concern in Macon can meet the wish
es of the people more fully or on better terms.
With attentive, civil and obliging attendance and fair dealing we
hope to merit the confidence of all who may favor us with their pat
ronage, with a happy New Year to all.
