Consequently when fire or wind cleans him out he finds himself in a sad predicament where 'he faces a lon^ time in debt to replace his clothing and furniture. We appreciate the small poiicy-ohvner's business ? : just as much as we do the big lines, and at all times safeguard his interests just as faithfully. 1 For sixty-three years we have built a reputation for prompt adjustments, fair rates and courteous attention. We are jealous of our standing and permit nothing to mar it. No matter how small, let us handle your insurance. Williams Insurance Agency R. M. KENNEDY, JR..
