. ANNOUNCEMENT
_
in retiring from active business-and especially from
the business with which i have been so long i jSO.Mated
there are a thousand and one things that 1 would love to
say. For more than fifty years 1 have been before the
good people of this good town and county and state,
and have enjoyed their confidence. For this, above all
things else in this connection, I feel truly grateful. Look
ing back over the years-fleeting enough now-1 recall
the most pleasant years of my life, friendships closely
cemented in transaction of business through seasons of
prosperity and through seasons of adversity. Connec
tions thus formed with manufacturers and dealers, with
their traveling representatives and with our own trade
wc will ever cherish.
So of course, it is with reluctance that I make this an
nouncement. But friends, fifty years is a long time and
1 have been pegging away now for. fifty years! My
health is not as good as it used to be. My family and
my physician tells me that it is best that I retire and 1 am
going to take their advice.
The young men who will succeed the C A. Reed Piano
& Organ company, Messrs. John M. Reese and Clyde A.
Welch, trading as the Reese-Welch Piano Co., are boin
men of known business integrity and I feel sure will, take!
care of the business of which I feed so proud? and it af??
fords me pleasure to commend them to the friends and.
customers of the old company. Mr. Reese has been
with me for twenty years and is perfectly familiar with -
the business,' as is also Mr. Welch who has had charge of
. our .office and collecting department for past four or five
years. ? : ?
And further, 1 do not mean, in retiring from active
business, to drop out ofsight-altoge'ther. ,1 will maintain
an office, in the store here and will be glad to see my
-old friends at any time.
With my most hearty thanks and best wishes for all
oldifriends and customers wherever they may be,
1 arti,, truly yours,
C. A. REED, President,
. ; , C. A. Reed Piano & Organ Co.
