looking for some of his old comrades
who fought with him durlne the war
in Co. H, 15th N. C. regiment, or
the "Monroe Litht Infantry." One or
his comrades, Ksq. V. G. Long, of
Goose Creek township. Is determined
that Mr. Coon will not have to look
very long for the few remaining mem
bers of his old company at Houston,
Texas, where the reunion will be held
this year. Mr. Long wrote Mr. Coon
last week telling him that he would
be at Houston, and where he could
be found. Mr. Long and Mr. Coon
fought side by side during the war,
and a friendship grew up between
them In those dark days that has
lasted all of these years. They were
together at the bat'le of Lee's farm,
Seven Days. Siuth Mountain, Sharp

The Ford Sedan with electric starting and lighting system and demountable rims
with 3! i inch tires all around, is the ideal family car because of its all-around utility
and refined and comfortable equipment. Finely upholstered. Plate glass windows.
An open car in the Spring, Summer, and early Fall. A closed car in inclement weather
and Winter. For theatre parties, for social visiting, for touring, and for taking the
children to school, it is just what you want. The low cost of operation and mainten
ance is not the least of its charms. A regular Ford car, simple in design, strong in con
struction, and durable in service. Won't you come in and look it over? The comforts
of an electric car just what you want.
