11, HFREAS, by an aft of the Council and Ge-
Vv neral Assembly, passed at Trenton the 19th
day of December last, the subscribers were appointed
trustees to fell and dilpofe of the real estate of Jo
nathan Hampton, late of Elizabeth-Town, in the
county of Essex, Enquire, deceased, for the uses and
purposes in the said a& mentioned.—They do give
this publick notice, that in pursuance of the power
and authority to them given in and by the said aft,
they will fell and difpole of the several plantations,
houses and lots of land, herein after mentioned, that
is to fay,
A dwelling-house and plantation lying about two
miles from Elizabeth-Town, on the great road to
Philadelphia, containing near two hundred acres,
fifty of which is woodland, fifty of it good meadow,
and the remainder extraordinary pasture and plough
land, the whole well watered, the house is built of
brick, two stories high, with four rooms on a floor,
a good kitchen, and a cellar under the whole ; there
is also a good barn and other out-houses, a fine
well of water near the door, an excellent garden,
with plenty of the best fruit trees; likewise two very
good orchards.
Also a small plantation containing abou: thirty
acres, with the dwelling-house and improvements
thereon ; on part of this land is a very excellent
orchard, the remainder exceeding good meadow. —
This house is commonly known by the name of the
Wheat-Sheaf tavern ; it has been a publick house
for many years, and is in a very good stand for bu
siness, being situate nearly opposite to where the
road from Raritan falls into the main road to Phi
ladelphia.
Also a large commodious dwelling-house in Eli
zabeth-Town, with a lot of land and garden to the
fame belonging, generally known by the name of
the White-House : It is a very good stand for pub
lick business.
Also a very neat dwelling-house, two stories high,
with the ground and garden to the fame belonging,
where Mrs. White now lives, adjoining the house
and land of Doctor Dayton : It is in a most pleasant
and agreeable part of the town.
Also several small tenements and lots of land lying
in the said town: likewise sundry tracts of land ly
ing in the county of Morris, one of which is in what
is called the Great Swamp, being an extraordinary
tradt of timber and woodland.
Also several plantations and lots of land in the
county of Sussex; the lots are in Newtown, near
the court-house, as are also some of the plantati
ons. Whoever should incline to purchase, by ap
plying to the trustees, may, very probably, find the
terms agreeable, as there will not be any immediate
occasion for a principal part of the purchase money,
for upon that being properly secured, and the in
terest paid, it will not perhaps be called for in years
to come. JOHN CHETWOOD, )
