prove quite painful for some time.

The deal was completed last
week whereby L. D. Hiatt and Ed
S. Tutt become the owners of the
late Holmes & Smith stock of
general merchandise at Murray.
We say the late Holmes & Smith
store for the simple reason that
it may be better known as such,
although it has had several own
ers since that firm sold out last
spring, the last of whom was Mr.
II. M. Davis
The store has enjoyed a good
patronage under the management
of both Mr. Hast and Mr. Davis,
but it has been the opinion of
many people around Murray that
the slock had slipped into the
hands of exclusive traders, none
of whom came to Murray with the
itnention of slaying only long
enough to dispose of it to an ad
vantage and a profit. As to this
being true we have never known,
but we do know thai, the people

Returns to the Hospital.
Mrs. Dave Lloyd was taken to
the hospital again Wednesday
morning of I his week. She was
accompanied by Dr. B. F. Brendel
nnd her son, Bert. Mrs. Lloyd re
turned home from the, hospital a
few weeks ago, and she seemed to
be improving quite rapidly until
a few days ago, when she grew
a great deal worse, and it was
deemed necessary to return her to
the hospital. She has been suf
fering with tuberculosis of the
bone in the limb.
can rest, assurred that the present
owners, Messrs. Hiatt and Tutt,
are going to Murray to remain. It
is fhi'ir intention of making Mur
ray their home, building up a gen
eral merchandise business that
will prove both interesting and
profitable to them, by treating the
people fair in every particular,
and extending every possible
courtesy due in the tranascting
of business on complete modern
principles. Mr. and Mrs. Tutt
expect to become residents of
Murray this week, if their present
plans prove successful in secur
ing a residence properly.
The Journal people have known
Messrs. Hiatt and Tutt for the
past ten years, and have found
JJiem lo be llrsl-class young men
in every particular. Tfiey were
born in Cass county and their
parents have been residents of
this section for more than fifty
veais. If there is a single man
in the county that can truthfully
speak ill of either generation of
I he Tutts and Hiatts, we have
failed lo see him. Mr. Tutt, sr.,
J. was one of Hie pioneer merchants
of Plaltsmoulh, being associated
with Captain Bennett for a great
many years, and Ed put in many
years in business with him.
We believe they will be success
ful from the start, for we are suf
licienlly well acquainted with the
people of Murary to know that
they love men of fairness. We
have no hesitancy in bespeaking
for them a liberal share of the
patronage upon this basis, and
believe that in future years their
present venture will prove
grand success.
