about two hundred and seven acres, the greatest part of which is
wood-land. There are on this farm a good house, barn, Oahies,
and other outhouses, with a young thriving orchard of the best
grafted fruit, and a shad and herring fiftiery. It has long been a
well accustomed tavern ; and the ferry belonging to it, knoWn bv
the name of Dunks's, is noted for being well kept and much fre
quented. Both thq above places afford the best profped'ts on the
liver, and are rem??kably healthy-
One other small Farm, containing about fixty-thrre acrrs, fifu
ate in the township of Southampton, in the lounty aforefaid ; on
which are erefled two log-houses. There is a small orchard, and

its contiguity to Alexandria, the Federal Town, and George-
