GEORGIA LAND OFFICE CIRCULAR.

NJ E respectfully announce to the owners of land
w in the State of Georgia, that we have opened an
office in this city, for the transaction of General Land
Business Both of us have been, for several years,
engaged in the business and are familiar with titles
and qualities of land in the various parts of the State.
Our whole time will be devoted exclusively the bu-
siness and we will sell, commission, any lands that
may be entrusted to care, purchase for indr'j
uals, lands that may be wanted by them in different
parts OF the State One of the partners will be
tinuay travelling in various sections of the State, for
the purpose of examining and selling lands
Much time has been occupied and expense incurred
by US, in finding out the of uncutvated lands
in the State by the county records, advertisements
tax books and other sources All the names of own
thus far ascertained have been recorded opposite
the number of the lands they own in the various coun-
ty district books kepin office The record is still
efficient, owing in part to the fact that many of
county tax receivers have returned lands owned by
dvlduas without giving the number of the lots or the
districts in which they are situated
We therefore respectfully ask of those persons
whose numbers not entered on the tax books, to
send us by mail, list of them The object ofwhicll
request is to know where to find the owners when an
application Is made for to purchase them. We al
ready have file, the numbers of many lots to be
purchased the owners of which, as yet, unknown
There are many scattered lots in varions parts OF
the State, and in the lower counties some bodies oil
land, Tor winch there are no apparent claimants
Some of these owned by the drawers or their
heirs, who have removed into Florida, Alabama Mis-
sssiPp Texas and other States or sold and now own
ed by nonresidents of Georgia.
We offer our services to all persons in this and in
other States. who own Georgia lands, and we will
promptly give them any information they desire rel
alive to their lands and the disturbed or undsturbed
validity of their titles. MORE & EDWARDS.
