Town merchants advertise a vast sale on ladies underwear, embroidered laces, gloves, hosiery, feathers, and clothing fabrics. Many items are offered at reduced prices with emphasis on ready-made gowns, men's and boys’ clothing, and accessories. The notice mentions special inducements and several named vendors and locations, urging visitors to Mosley street and other outlets.
