friend, Joe Cook, will install a new
meat market in Murray in the

Ihe store room of William Mc

to leave Murray, ell is sure a live
business man, one who thorough
ly understands every branch of
I the mercantile business. Mr.
Hast has been well satisfied with
the increase in his business, but
it does not look as though it could
be made a great deal larger, and
he cannot see his way o reach the
volume of business that he would
like o do each year. He does not
believe that it is here. This is
about his only reason for selling.
The Journal certainly regrets to
see Mr. Hast leave Murray.
From his large ad in another
column of this issue it will be
seen that Mr. Hast will make bis
remaininor nays in Murray live
ones in the merchandise line. He
is mnkinsr some bargains that will
move the goods for the next two
weeks. He is compelled lo re
duce Ihe stock before the new
owner takes charge of it.
Apply to Holmes or Smilh.
