Ev-ery duggist has it. y Columbia a Auld 11arket. Fifteen years Ago the bulk of le mules sold in this section were a sold by the sto.k raisers them= it selves. Drovers, as they were le called, would bunch up their jstock and drive through or ship m south to the cotton country, id generally making some good town 2e their headquarters and retailing out their mules. Nowadays the le1 business is conducte,l in an :e entirely different way. The breeder ships his stock to the wholesale >t market and they are sole to the mule merchants who buy them - for their regularly established places of business. The mule mau 3e of today buys his mules and m places them on sale jnst as the d merchant buys his goods and n, places them in his store for sale. re About 13 years ago the Gregory - Brothers, then doing a good mule eo, business at Lancaster, S. C., fe seeing an opportunity and .be .o lieving in the future of Columbia, e opened a retail business in this city on Plain street. Being sup ported by a strong concern it r withstood the financial strains of 193, which told on so.many in all Is lines of business, and gradually r grew until the year .1899 when it was decided to eularge the d business which resulted in the r- forming of a corporation known as the Gergory-Rhea Mule com 's . any. This concern is now known le far and wide as being one of some magnitude. They do an %r extensive business selling mules by the hundreds and in dollars o and cents counting way up in the e thousands. They also handle in connection quite a large number d of vehicles. Mr. W. T. Gregory, d president of the company, is a ,s resident of Lancaster, S. C, d where he was born and raised. :s Mr. T. J. Harper, vice president, is a resident of Columbia and one of our most substahtial - cit;.xens. Mr. Jno. W. Qonder, secretary e and treasurer as wel as manager, it i: well known in d>lumbia, was - raised in Columbia but got his C early training in th ofce of the r Gregory Brothers it Lancaster. r He is kndwn as a man that e repreaentiigoodajuit as they e are. -" Mr. Gergory is also the promo - ter and president of sale stables g doing business at Lancaater, S. C, g Bishopville, S. C., Timmonsville, - S. C., and Charleston, S. C., and t is considered one of the largest ,t dealers in live stock in the State. -. Their buyer, Mr. J. M. Hood, r also one of the stockholders, spent most of his tirme in the wholesale markets looking for bargains for their different places. He has plenty of gray hairs on e his head and 'tis said can shut r one eye and size up a. mule as i; quick as anyone.-Adv. A Frightened Horse. r. Bunning like mad down the e street, dumping the occupants, or - a hundred other accidents, are r every day occurrences.
