HEALEY G IS.HRIVER'S
ADDITION TO BARTON
THIS valuable property generally known
L about Barton as the school House Lott
which has been so long sought after by
the residents of Barton and others for build
ing lots, lies in he Valley of Georges Greek
in the rapidlygrowing town of Barton
Situated as it is in the heart of n rich mining
district, and lying Immediately adjacent to
extensive mines of the great coal vein in full
operation, is rapidly enhancing in value
The proprietors have determined, however,
to place a limited number of lots in the
market at this time.
No propcrty on Georges Creek offers such
advantages to persons desiring to secure
cheap, comfortable and desirable homes rs
this, owing to its nearness to the Potomac
and other large coal mines in full working;
its freedom the dangers of the railroad; It's
nevcr-tailing supply of good fresh water; its
close proximity to the new public school
building, churches and stores, and its pecu.
liarly beautiful and healthy location.
The future prosperity and growth of Bar.
ton, and indeed the entire Valley, is assured
beyond doubt. The Cumberland Coal
now stands unrivaled in demand and quail
ty in the markets of the world, and will con-
tinue to grow in value, and even when
what is known as the Great Vein is ex-
hausted-whch will be many years hence
the smaller seams will be as eagerly sought
and worked as the large ones now are.
Thus it will be easily seen that these lots
must steadily grow in value; and at the
prices and at the terms now offered, afford,
even to those not wishing to build, a first
class investment. This is more especially
the case, as these lots are almost the only
ones renadin5ng uasold in Barton.
1t is hardly necessary to refer to the title
to this property. 1t is indisputa6le and clear
of all lines and membranes, the present
propretors having purchased it recently at
a trustees sale, under Il decree of the Circuit
Court of Allegany county, in Chancery, by
which the Deed of Trust under which it
had been for sixty years past was vacated
and set aside, and the property sold for the
benefit of the heirs of Roger Perry, the orig
inal owner.
Terms Of Sale But forty of these
lots, each being fifty feet front and one hum
dred feet in depth, will be now offered for
sale. Those on Bridge street, now unsold,
are reserved. The price for each lot is two
hundred dollars, to be paid as follows: $50
in cash at the time of purchase, and $40 per
iipItll, hitHout IlittlCSt, uItll paul lOT.-
When desired, deeds will be given at the
time of purchase, and mortgages taken to
secure the deferred payments.
Where purchasers will agree to build or
commence building, houses on lots so pur-
chased, within specified time, notes with
approved security will be taken for the de-
ferrcd monthly payments, and deed in fee
sample will be given upon the payment Of
the first instalmcnt of twenty dollars.
Arrangements will be made for the build
ing of houses for purchasers upon monthly
payments, when applied for,
Preference will be given to early purcha-
sers, and discount of five per cent, will be
allowed those paying the entire purchase
money in cash
Purchasers will apply to URIAH DUCK,
WORTH, Esq, in person, or by letter adj
dressed to him at Barton, Md, or to NJ. A.
