I HAVE been taking a further look at a battered old copy of “ The Adv e r t i s e r ” which came my way recently. It was rather like piec­


ing together a very' deli­ cate and dilapidated


jigsaw puzzle but, with a little patience and the sur-. pression of. one or two impolite .expletives, I did manage eventually to find several items of interest. The date was May 8th,


1903, and' I must have found an unfortunate week for there was little local news of real impact. There were the odd


couple of cases at the . magistrates court — quite petty matters really, for which fines- of 25p were considered adequate pun-


1 ishmeht — and also a somewhat lengthy account of the proceedings of the former Bowland Rural District' Council which ap­ peared . to be', having a little difficulty in balanc­ ing its accounts. .. On this particular week,


however, the advertise­ ments provided me. with the greatest divertisse­ ment. The traders, of the town


offered, some remarkable- bargains. Messrs Red- m a y n e ’ s , , o f .Church Street, advertised _their bespoke lounge" suits,' made to measure, at prices ranging from £L 50 to the expensive .ones at £3.25. A " ladies’ outfitters in


Castle Street offered “real ostrich • feather boas at 35p” and I imagine the ladies of the town .and dis­ trict would have been ex-, tremely fashionable in the ensuing-, .w e e k s and months.,


* - • : Male readers, I-.am


sure, would be interested in the billiard handicap to be promoted at the Con-' serva’tive 'Club. F i r s t , prize1' was a "handsome' billiard cue " and 'case,”., worth 25p. P o u l t r y k e eper s,, throughout''the district'


would. be - interested in. an advertisement,.one ..would,


be unlikely to meet today. - The head k e e p e r a t ’


Bolton Hall was prepared to buy 200 to 300 broody hens at llVfcp each, but stipulated that “they must be good sitters.” These, I presume,


would be required to h atch c lu t ch e s o f gamebirds’ eggs; a very different situation to that which exists today. Why,, even the hall, which once gave refuge to King Henry VI, has been long since demolished. : An advertisement . of


another - kind appeared under situations vacant. There were not many of them. A caterer and caretaker


was required at the Vic­ toria Cycle Cottage,-Edis-


W h a N e y W in d o w


ford Bridge. The success­ ful applicant would live at


.the cottage, .rent and rates free, and would “be


entitled to all the cater­ ing profits” provided that


. all facilities were main­ ta in ed fo r th e ; club members.


For- bie, ’ however,' by


far the . most interesting item was the' announce­ ment of an extra special attraction at the Public Hall — younger readers will know it as the Civic


-Hall, those slightly older as the Gran Kinema.


Fulfilling an engage­


ment there was Mr Fred Hilderson’s London Corn- direct from the

Calling till the


Deans


AN AMERICAN whose great-great grandparents emigrated from Riming- ton in ’ May, 1830, is trying to trace the de­ scendants of the family who stayed behind in the Ribble Valley. Mr . R.' Holt Dean, of


2515 L in c re s t Road, Joppa, Maryland, consid­ ers he must have a rela­ tive among the 200-odd Deans listed in the Black­ burn area telephone direc­


tory. His great-great grand­


father, William, son of John and Martha Dean, of Gazegill, sailed for New York with wife Mary, their five children, sons- in-law Robert Moss ■ and John Blackburn, and at least three grandchildren. In a letter to the Ad­


vertiser and Times Mr Holt Dean, whose ances­ tor was a weaver turned farmer, asks what became of the family who stayed behind. He says- William probably had more than four brothers and sisters. William married Mary,


nee Boothman, at Gisburn Parish Church in 1804. Mary is thought to have hailed from Bamoldswick.
