Big Twiford and Little Twiford, Dealers in Real Estate, April 30, 1920

From the front page of The Independent, Elizabeth City, N.C., April 30, 1920

Big Twiford and Little Twiford

Readers of this newspaper are familiar with the firm name of Twiford & Twiford, dealers in real estate. Well, here they are—the pair of them. They are as inseparable as the Siamese Twins, Damon & Pythias or Daniels & Cox. In Elizabeth City we call them “Big Twiford and Little Twiford” to distinguish t’other from which. The Big one is Dallas, a heavy weight, hard hitting son of Dare. He used to manage things for the Dare Lumber Co. at Buffalo City. He came to Elizabeth City about two years ago when the Dare Lumber Co. began to look shaky. He says he’s here to stay; he likes Elizabeth City and Elizabeth City likes him. T’other Twiford, Mr. L.B. Twiford, was for several years connected with the J.H. Aydlett Hardware Co. He is one of those long headed fellows and saw Elizabeth City and its opportunities before his partner. The real estate firm of Twiford & Twiford was established in September of 1919 and has been a success from the start. The pair of them probably would succeed in any line in which they placed themselves.
