f OUR POLICY.
The policy of the Bank of
Williamsburg has always
v been, and will in the future
more than ever, be to lend
its financial aid and influence
toward helping" the de
* serving, progressive and
'needy people,rather than to
aid and assist the wealthy
y man to carry on his speculations
and greedy practice of
gain. We shun large, risky
loans to any one person,
firm or corporation*. This,
we foresee, will do much
V\ more toward the upbuilding
of our couutry and thereby
repay those people who re>
pose so much confidence in
our institution and patronise
|t so largely. Conservatism
must attend our every
act aqd doing. We propose
distributing our loans with
view to safety first, then to
uniform development of our
section.

the narrow contines of our
town and county.
| We regret that under our rules
I we cannot publish this week an
article from Chapman signed "A
Friend." There is no objection
at all to printing the article
save the simple ijtct that the
writer did not sign his or her
name, which, we have stated
several thousand times, is inevitably
required, "not necessarily
for publication but merely as a
guarantee of good faith." If the
writer desires to see the com
munication referred to in print
in this newspaper he or she will
i have to let us know who is responsible
for the article. ^
; We are informed that the
\ package of "Records" addressed
to Salters Depot failed to reach
. that office last week. We check
Krif4 ha ')
up every paena^c uciuic
' pers are-put in the office,so that
the Salters package must have
got lost after leaving our hands.
I We know it is very anuoying^o
: our subscribers to pay for the
paper and not get it, but all we
can do is to print the paper and
| put it in the postoffice. It causes
us much greater worry and dis!
appointment, we know, than our
subscribers feel,but we are pow1
erless to regulate the United
States mails,or to improve their
efficiency.
A Card.
; Editor County Record:?
Permit me through your columns
? to attempt to express to the peopl^
of Kingstree and other parts of the
county my heartfelt thanks and
grateful appreciation for their manifold
kindnesses toward my poor boy
and the sympathetic, charitable spir
! it shown toward both him and myself
in this dark hour of tribulation.
Words are not adequate to convey
the full measure of mv gratitude,but
let these few protestatious be aa earnest
of the sentiments of esteem aud
friendship that I will ever bear in
my heart f.jr the noble people who
have shown us such disinterested
kindness.
May God reward you all, as 1
cannot.
Yours most siucerely,
J 11 M Motley.
