      Charles G. Snead
      Dealer in Dry Goods, Groceries and General Merchandise
      Bohannon, Virginia
      We have just received a new Spring line of up-to-date goods to which we call the attention of the public and our patrons. We have as good a stock of Dry Goods, Shoes, Clothing, Hats, Caps, &c, as has ever been in the county, and we want you to come and examine them before going elsewhere. We have carefully selected the stock, and as we paid cash for everything we bought we got them at a low figure. Therefore we are able to give our customers goods at considerably less than were we dealing with Baltimore merchants on a sixty or ninety-day basis. All we ask it that you call and examine before going elsewhere. The contents of our establishment are new and up-to-date, and we are convinced they will give you satisfaction.
      Martin Bassett, Manager
