Publishers' Card.
The Publishers desire to express their thanks to the peo- ple of the beautiful and growing Town of Rockport for the courtesy extended to them in their labor of canvassing and for the patronage received for the work. No pains have been spared to make the Directory full and correct, but the public are requested to bear in mind the difficulty of compiling the first edition of so large a list of names with- out an occasional minor error, which can be better avoided in a second. It cannot fail to prove of value to all for fre- quent reference. The enterprising business houses of the vicinity offer favorable inducements, and we trust that they will receive a liberal patronage.
