pation of a respectable family; and extensive farm-buildings, nearly
new, with every requisite convenience ; a neat house, barn, and

crops of wheat, oats, barley, green crop, and grass testify. One
hundred acres, three roods, and thirty-six perches are freehold, the
residue of easy customary fine certain tenure. The whole is tithe-
free, and exonerated from land-tax, and the poor and all other rates
