ISAAC PROCTER, Merchant Tailor, (Successor fo
the firm of Oliver & Procter) having purchased out
the entire interest of Thos. M. Oliver, in the late firm

portunity to inform the patrons of the said firm of the
fact and to solicit from them the continuance of their
support I have just received a beautiful supply of
(roods, selected by Mr. Oliver, with great care, from
the latest importations, embracing
Cloths, Cassi meres and Vesting of evert colour dan
grade, Dress-Shirts, Under-Shirts, Drawers, Gravels,
Handkerchiefs, J"c, J"c.
In fact, everything usually kept by Merchant Tailors
or Clothiers. I shall be assisted by Mr. Geo. L. Gould,
an experienced Coat cutter, (and a pupil of Mr. Oliver's
in (act, having been Oliver and Procter's coat-cutter
lor the last fourteen months. ) I shall have charge of the
pantaloons and vest department myself, and I have had
exclusive charge of it in the late firm lor the last five
years.
Everything will be done that can be done, to give
satisfaction and t render the establishment popular
wi'h its patrons. Profoundly thankful for the patronage
so liherallv bestowed upon us as a firm, I shall endeavor
by assiduous attention to business and a desire to please.

To my friends and Customers in North Carolina.
AVING made arrangements to leave the State, at
fiii I iesl by the first of December, and having dis
posed of my interest to Isaac Procter, (my partner for the
last eitilit years.) I lake pleasure in recommending him
to those who have stood by me so long, as a gentlemen
every way worthy of their confidence and support.
I look upon Mr. Procter, without attempting to dis
parage others, and what I say now must be believed,
(being totally disconnected with him in business) as be
ing the very best cutter I ever saw. He will be assis
ted by Geo L.Gould, a pupil of mine, who has been
culling all the Coats made up lor our customers for the
last toui teen months, a d has no superior in that depart
ment. I have led in the concern all the patterns I have
of my customers scattered all over the State, and they
may rely upon being as faithfully served, having their
cloths, as weil t ut and made, and the quality of the ma
terials just such as would be furnished, were The
BUG.' present in propria persona" I have laboured
hard to build up a business in North Carolina, and desire
that those who have patronised me should continue to
uphold my late partner, particularly when assured by
me, that they will be as well served as they were under
the administration of Oliver & Procter.
