Oldest  Market Changes Hands

Elsewhere  in this issue will be seen the announcement to the effect
that Mr. E.S. Stewart has sold his market to Messrs. Clack and
Kennedy, effective Jan 1st.  In passing it is of interest when it is
 remembered that  this is the oldest market in Rayville.

About thirty-five years ago, Mr. Stewart opened up this business 
and through all of these years the Stewart Market has served,
and served well, the people of this town in the line of fresh meats
and kindred items.

The new proprietors are not stangers to Rayville people by any
means, and will doubtless enjoy a liberal patronage.
