WARNING TO THE TRADE! 



The trade is warned against a young man who has made his 

 appearance in the New England States, who is representing himself 

 as "Young Mr. Dreer." In one instance, on a plausible story, he 

 secured the loan of some money from a brother florist. There is no 

 such person as young Mr. Dreer, and William F. Dreer is not in the 

 country at this time.
