ter through trunks into the vats, fixed at the foot of
the dam; the like advantages, from natural situa
tions, will admit the fame on other parts of this
land. The whole is champion oak and hickory,
excepting three hundred acres of pine land for lum
ber. One, two and three years credit will be given,
on paying the interest, and giving approved security,
