The E. G. Hill Company 31 
O WING to extraordinary shipping conditions this spring we advise 
when stock is received in damaged condition through delay or 
rough handling while in transit, accepting it and report the extent 
of the damage to your express agent and to us. We will do all in our 
power to adjust the matter satisfactorily. But if shipments are refused 
outright there is very little that can he done as all merchandise is the 
property of the consignee the moment the shipper receives a receipt from 
the express company. 
Let us all work together helping the over loaded express companies 
and it will be for the mutual advantage of all. 
We extend our best wishes to all our valued friends in the trade, and 
with the slogan 
‘EVERY EFFORT FOR BUSINESS AS USUAL’ 
THE E. G. HILL COMPANY
