Unprecedented Prices.
It is with great pleasure and satis-<
faction that we say to the farmers i
of Williamsburg and adjoining coun- i
ties, that the prices we are getting t
for tobacco at CENTRAL WARE- i
HOUSE cannot be surpassed by any t
market or warehouse in the United i
States. Morgan, the Hustler, is in
his glory because he feels that he, 1
in a measure, is getting his friends i
and customers prices they can live 1
at. In order to give you a better 1
idea of what we are doing for hun- 1
dreds of farmers, and will do for
you we will quote only a few names I
and prices they have received for c
the passed two or three days: r
B F Griffin sold 190 pounds at 1
$28.00, 212 at $28.00; S D Baylor, c
-f ?oo on K7K of too no- T c r
Kelly, 312 at $26.00, 440 at $27.00; i
J G McCullough, 410 at $28 00; 785 s
at $26.00; B J Mouzon, 600 at $34.00, I
265 at $25.00; J C Buddin, 510 at t
535.00; J G Gibbons, 222 at $40.00, I
244 at $35.00; J K Smith, 740 at
528.00, 452 at $27.00; W J Smiley,
765 at $30.00, 575 at $26,00, 342 at
527.00; J W Chandler. 430 at $28.00,
536 at $28.00; C A Buddin, 260 ]
at $34.00. [
If we had the space we could give c
you the names of dozens of others t
syho are getting just as good prices c
as named above. 1
Mr W T Wilkins'is associated with t
as. He, as well as we, are anxious
that his old friends should come to
3ee us with their next load. Mr W 8
E Nesmith watches every pile sold
and sees that your interest is looked j
after. Morgan will be found in the c
hottest of the fight,!seeing that your j
tobacco is bringing the best price, v
not only by talking but spending his j
:ash, so you see we are obliged to c
aret a little more than the other fel- t
low, also do not forget the $300 to
oe given away September 8 to those
&Tho sell with us.
Come, we will do you good.
Your friends,
adv Morgan & Nesmith.
