Court, OF the large estate OF David Banks, de-
ceased, under the direction oil William Mann,
referee.
AS the property thus ofbred is located in the
most prominent portions OF the city and being very
desirable, 1t was expected that large prices would
be realized. Such was the Case In some instances,
and In others the lots and appnrtenances did not

This concluded the sale OF the famous Banks es-
real estate interest for weeks past. AS will be
seen by the above quotations large lots OF the prop
posed to have purchased the same for the heirs.
This, however, is only guesswork, and i such IS

TO account ior the apathy OF the buyers at this
stormy weather prevailing. 1t will be o long time
before such an extensive and well situated lot OF
real estate will come into the market ut one time
and under such circumstances.
