One is for William H. MOSBY, who was advertising "elegant new furniture," and the other was an announcement by WILSON & FRANKLIN that they were relocating their business. Other surnames mentioned include SCHOOLFIELD, THURMAN and HOLLINS. These were scanned from an original issue (NOT microfilm!) of the Lynchburg Virginian newspaper dated January 26, 1854, and you can see them online here: http://theoldentimes.com/wilsfrank54campva.html and http://theoldentimes.com/wmhmosby54campva.html I'll be adding some more tonight, but you can access any and all Campbell County & Lynchburg newpaper articles, etc., from http://theoldentimes.com/campbell.html I hope they're helpful!
