Tilghman Bros. - - Jewelers - - CAPE CHARLES, VIRGINIA Guernsey Cattle FOR SALE Due to lack of necessary barn and pasture facilities for the large herd we are now carrying, we offer for sale ten to fifteen head of splendidly bred young Guernsey cattle, consisting of a regis tered Guernsey bull, milking cows, and a number of heifers, both bred and open. For several years we have saved the heifers from only our very best cows and regret that cir cumstances necessitate letting part of them go. Our herd is entirely accredited for both tuber culosis and Bang’s disease and these cattle can go anywhere in the country without test.' This is an excellent opportunity for anyone interested in some well-bred Guernsey foundation stock to get it at reasonable pric«s. We have never used anything but registered bulls and this stock has been by them for several generations back. We invite your inspection of them. W. S. Nelson & Son Onancock, Va. Correction We caried in our society columns last week an announcement of the marriage of Miss' Sally Crockett, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Crockett of Wachapregue. This announcement now turns out to be false. When the item reached us it carried the name of one of the parents of Miss Crockett and was printed in good faith by us, as we did not know their signature. The penalty is very heavy upon con viction for sending a newspaper false items for publication. We do not want to give anyone trouble but if we apprehend the party sending this item, we propose to see that the party is prosecuted. Card Of Thanks We wish to express our sincere Appreciation for the many kindnesses and expressions of sympathy shown during the illness and death of our beloved mother, Mollie Taylor.
