IB KING WAREHOUSE SOLDADVER I TISING CAMPAIGN PROJECT I ED--PERSONAL AND LOCAL. f Lake City, September 23:?One I of the biggest real estate deals ever consummated in Lake City recently I took place Friday when Messrs J D i King and Co sold their immense toff bacco sales warehouse to Messrs L | 0 Holloway and B G Bowen. This | warehouse has only recently been 1 constructed, having been completed this summer just in time for the | 1 opening of the tobacco market at this place at a cost of about $20,000.00. The warehouse and adjoining lots were sold for the sum of about $25,000.00. Only for the fact that circumstances necessitated Messrs J D King and Co abandoning the market at this place, much to the regret of their many friends and patrons here, would it have been sold at that price. Messrs Holloway and Bowen are two of our most successful and energetic business men, especially in this line, and a sucessful and prosperous warehouse career is predicted for them.
