Want to Sell a Leg?
Any one with a leg to spare is here notified that he will be able to do business with Will Taylor, of Portersville, Ala. He appears to be anxious to dicker for one without any unnecessary delay.
The Chattanooga police department received a letter from Mr. Taylor in which he made it quite plain that he wants a leg at once. His, he states, is off just above the knee, but he fails to say whether left or right leg is needed to make his feet track. The letter, addressed to “Mr. Police, Chattanooga,� is as follows:
“dear sir, i will rite you a few lines to let you know that i want a leg. Min is off about six inch above my nee and I want a leg at once. rite and tell me what it will Cost me. i want it at once rite on return Mail and fail not so very truly
Will Taylor.�
Written on the other side of the paper is:
“Back your letter to Will Taylor Portersville Ala. Mr. Police, please send this letter to the leg Man.�
