PREFACE
We take pleasure in submitting Vol. VI of the Gastonia, N. C., Directory. While no directory is free from errors, we feel sure the Gastonia Directory will rank above the average city directory and will give general satisfaction. Experienced help only has been used in collecting the data for this directory, and if there are any omissions of names it is not due to the fact that the ground was not fully covered by our canvassers, for a house-to-house canvass was made. It often occurs that a person, in giving the information for the directory, overlooks or forgets to give names of persons that should be listed, and in such cases it is not the fault of the publisher that some names are left out. The Gastonia Directory can be relied upon, and will be found by all who use it to be a very valuable book of information, and one which no up-to-date business man can afford to be without.
We desire to thank our patrons for their liberal support, by which this publication was made possible. We also desire to extend our thanks to our many friends and the public in general for the cour- teous way in which they supplied us with the proper data. It is a pleasure for us to publish a directory in a city where the people are interested and where they are willing to co-operate with us and lend their aid in the making up of a work of this character as was the case in Gastonia. This of itself is good evidence that Gastonia is a good, live, up-to-date city, and a good place in which to live.
We shall continue this publication and promise you efficient service.
