| T& Our Friends and Customers: |
The year 1903 has been, thanks to you, a prosper
ous one for us, and we feel that our sincere
thanks are due you for your liberal pat
ronage. We have been dealing with you,
your children and your children's children for the
past thirty years and have always endeavored to
merit your trade, and to retain your friendship. We
feel that a large measure of our success is due, not
alone to your continual patronage, but also to the
fact that almost every one of you have been our
staunch friends, and have always done what you
could for our house. We feel proud of our business.
It is the GREATEST MERCANTILE INSTITUTION
in Northeast Arkansas and you may truthfully say,
“I helped to make it what it is.” It is for this we
wish to thank you, and we do heartily. There has
been a rumor throughout the country that we are
going to quit business—Such is not the case—
We wish to deny this emphatically. This is the
county that we have been rais d in from boyhood.
We have seen it broaden and improve for thirty
years. We are proud of its growth and the share
we have had in making it what it is today. We look
for bigger and better things for the future. Our in
terests are here with you and in this county and here
we will remain to do as heretofore, anything in our
power towards the good of our home. We have
helped to build your roads, your school houses and
your churches, and we shall not deviate one bit from
the course which we have so closely followed for
thirty years. We ask of you the same good fellow
ship "that has existed in tne past. We hope to merit
your continued patronage as heretofore. We want
you to take hold with us and all pull together for the
welfare of our home and ourselves. Again thanking
you and wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year, We are,
YOURS THANKFULLY, S
