RICHMOND.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1, 1864. Having bought the Wholesale and Retail BOOT AND SHOE establishment of Mr. Edwin A. Brooks, No. 150 Fulton Street (where I have been employed for the past eleven years), I desire to inform my friends and the public in general that I shall continue the business on a strictly ONE-PRICE system.

Believing that the business can be conducted on the principle, of truth and justice, I have given instructions to all persons in my employ never to misrepresent any article that may be offered for sale.

It is my intention to manufacture and keep on hand a superior quality of goods, at prices from 3 to 15 per cent. less than heretofore, and a still further reduction will be made as soon as the market will admit.

Yours respectfully, C. C. RICHMOND. N.B.—The foreman and employes of the former business remain with me. REFERENCES—(By Permission). Rev. THEO. L. CUYLER, Brooklyn. E. D.
