Pearson, R. H. - 1874

We present the law card of R. H. Pearson, Esq., to our readers.  If we did not well know, that, although a lawyer, he is a modest gentleman, we would give him a “puff”.  He needs no puffing.  He has made rapid strides into public favor here, and, we think, he was about the first lawyer who settled in Birmingham, (Mr. Pearson is a young man, notwithstanding that), in partnership with the lamented Robt. H. Henley.  He deserves unlimited success.

Kieser, Ben H. - 1874

The Montgomery Evening Ledger is really the handsomest Daily paper in the South.  It is published by an Association of Printers; the head of which is Ben. H. Kieser- one of the best printers in this country- whom we have known for many years.  The Ledger is published at $5 a year- 50 cents per month.  We wish its enterprising proprietors unbounded success.

W. H.

Sively, A. J. - 1874

We invite attention to the quarter-column advertisement of our young friends, W. L. & A. J. Sively.  They have recently removed from Elyton to this city, and are “live”, thorough-going business men, who deal “on the square”.

They keep a full stock of everything in the dry goods and groceries line, buy cotton, &c., and, we are glad to see, are doing well.

O’Brien, Frank P. - 1874

Why is it.-  We have not had a Dramatic or Minstrel company in Birmingham since last season.  Our theatre-goers are very anxious to have our beautiful theatre occupied once in a while.  The unreasonable license of last season has been repealed and the gentlemanly lease of the Theatre can now offer inducements to good companies to visit us.

We learn that the whole charge per night, covering all house expenses, is only $15.  Come, gentlemen, show your companies in Birmingham.  There is many a spare dollar burning in our pockets.  Frank P. O’Brien is the Lessee of the Theatre.
