Salem, containing about fourteen hundred acres,
which, for the extreme fertility of the foil, value of

Each plantation will contain at least eighty acres of

with a frame or log dwelling-house, and three of them
with new barns, besides other out-houses. Adjoin

about eighty acres, of an excellent bottom, covered
with a great quantity of white oak and other valuable
timber. The aforefaid trad of land will either be
fold all together, or in separate lots, to suit the pur

Any person or persons inclining to view the premises,
