Wilmington Post ad rates and local notes amid a festive mix
The Wilmington Post outlines advertising rates, with ten lines constituting a square and early insertions at a dollar per square, while readers learn of local items such as the Chamber of Commerce, county and city offices, and a packed column of brief notes on politics, shipping, and social events. The page cites republican committee actions, oyster trade talk, literary notices, and upcoming publications, all in a bustling early-post era voice.
