Domestic credits and shop notices flood Athens County ads
A long column of ads and notices publicizes sales and promotions in Athens Ohio. Rev. J W Fri is named county agent for canvassing the county with offers and appeals for contributions and support for local merchants. The piece also highlights Selig & Co and Kurtz Norris shopping opportunities with price cuts on ready made clothing boots and footwear, cigars and tobacco, watches, jewelry, and farm wear. It notes hours at John Barrell market, and announces marriage details for Palmer Morrison in Troy township.
