fifty of which is woodland, fifty of it good meadow,
and the remainder extraordinary p^fture and plough
land, the whole well watered, the house is built of
brick, two Rories 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.
Alia a small plantation containing about 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 fiand 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 EV
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 Rand for pub
lick bufinel's.
Also a very neat dwelling-house, two Rories high,
with the ground and garden to the fame belonging,
where Mrs. White now lives, adjoining the houlc

and agreeable part of the town.
Also several small tenements and lots of land lying

county of Sullex; the lots are in Newtown, near
the court-house, as are also feme of the pßntati-.
Qns. 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 mopey,
for upon that being properly secured, and the lu
te,reft paid, it will not perhaps be called for in years
to come. JOHN CHETWOOD, ) Trustees
