Book excerpt: The Western Carolinian carried a variety of advertising, which was then, as it is for newspapers now, a major source of revenue. These advertisements for the years 1827-1828 are compiled in this volume. In them the citizens of Rowan County and the surrounding area sold their houses; people advertised for lost items; natural disasters happened; people were murdered; executions were carried out; sheriffs sold property to pay for taxes. These and many other events were published in the paper. Over 2,200 names are indexed.
