To the Trade,

I have disposed of my established business on Broad street to the Nashville Beer & Bottling Company, and would respectfully bespeak for the new firm the generous patronage heretofore extended to me, assuring all that the new firm will take pleasure in serving them with promptness with the same reliable goods heretofore delivered.  Respectfully, E. Ottenville.

______

Consolidation of Two Old Established
Businesses.

In confirmation of the above the new firm would respectfully add that its endeavor will be to please and by strict attention to the wants of the trade and fostering the interest of its patrons merit the continuance of the favors heretofore extended to its predecessor.
  James E. Hayes, so long connected with Mr. Ottenville, and Mr. Toney Slaman, formerly representing the C. Moerlein Brewing Company, whose interest and good will we have also purchased, as well as all the old and faithful employees, will be retained by the new firm and shall be pleased to welcome their friends.  The Nashville Beer & Bottling Company.
