I desire to call the attention of all those who owe me anything, that their accounts and notes are now due, and that I am compelled to have money. We have been bless ed with bountiful crops, and all can pay who are so disposed, as I will take corn, fodder, wheat, oats, rye, cotton, peas, potatoes, pork, and almost everything, in payment of debts due me. So 1 hope my old friends and customers will re spond liberally to this call, for by so doing they will’ save cost and their good name at the same time. I mean business, when I say that I am compelled to have money. All those who are indebted to the firm of McAfee & Moss must pay their accounts and notes at once. Those failing to do so, or to make satis factory arrangements, will certainly find their accounts in the hands of collecting officers. I want to purchase 10,000 bun dles of fodder and 1,000 bushels of corn, for which I will pay goods or cash to those not indebted to me. I have now got, and am receiv ing daily, one of the largest and best selected stocks of goods ever exhibited in North Georgia, which I propose to sell very cheap for cash or barter. I am determined to sell as low as the lowest, as my experience in business and facili ties for buying are not excelled by any in this country. We—l mean myself and clerks—invite all the children and ladies to call before purchasing elsewhere, as we will give all the children candy and love all the ladies. 9 J. M. McAFEE.
