TO THE PUBLIC:

It is with some feeling of regret that we announce our

retirement from the business on the beginning of the new year.

Our stock and premises will then be transferred to Messrs.

Franklin and Warren, whom we cheerfully present to your

notice, and feel it our duty to recommend them for a

continuance of that liberal confidence and patronage which you

have bestowed on us during the past twenty years.

Both these young gentlemen have been clerks of ours for

several years past, and are in every way efficient and capable

to continue the business.

We are

Respectfully,

JOHNSON & FOX
