We are pained to record the death
of Mrs. J B. Huskey, of Grassy Pond,
which sad event occurred at her home
on the IGth inst. after two weeks ill
ness of typhoid fever. Her remains
Were buried at Grassy Pond chur;h
on the 17th.
Mrs Huskey was a lady of high
character and the high esteem in
which she was held was evidenced by
the large attendance at her burial.
She was about 40 years old and leaves
a husband and eleven children to
mourn their irreparable loss. They
have the sympathy of a large circle
of friends, including The Ledger.
We regret that Mr. Huskey is also
quite sick of the same disease, but
we hope for his recovery,

From December 18th
to Xmas Eve Night.
Since our last ad in The Ledger we have estimated our stock of Winter
Shoes for men, women and children, and lind that we have on hand of
Winter Shoes 1,000 pairs, and have but a short time to dispose of them,
so we decided on having One Solid Bargain Week in Shoes
BE6INNIN6 OEC. I8TH ANO CONTINUING TILL CHRISTMAS EVE NIGHT,
Remember that we don’t ask you even to pay freight on the pair of
shoes you buy. During this sale every pair must go at cost, for we need
the room, and the money we paid for them. We cannot iifiord to invest
money in Whiter goods and carry them over till next Fall, so we urge
you to come early next Thursday morning, the first day of the Grand
Shoe Sale. Everyone shall he treated alike—if not satisfied your money
returned. Wo would give you prices on some of these slices but our ad
is too small. When you come if they are not as cheap and cheaper than
you can buy elsewhere in Gaffney, don’t buy.
