COAL AND LUMBER

[Welland Tribune, 26 December 1902]

             W.H. Crow, coal and lumber merchant, Welland, takes pleasure in thanking those who patronized him this year as well as those in previous years.  I always try to please and satisfy those who favor me with their trade, and give good value for every dollar’s worth of goods, and to deal as if I were the purchaser. I always buy in the very lowest markets, mostly for cash, and give my customers the benefit of my money and experience. As you all know coal has been very scarce and high, but not as dear as in many places. I have been more successful than most dealers and have already had thirteen cars of coal, and several cars on the way. In order to satisfy all orders, and especially my regular customers, I have been obliged to deal it out in small quantities. I expect plenty in a few days so that all who are in immediate need can be supplied. I have a tremendous stock of all kinds of lumber and shingles and will sell at a cut price till January 1st.

Wishing one and all a Merry Xmas and many happy returns of 1903 -W.H. Crow
