Immigrant Union-Dear Sir:-I have just WIS.,
tied the "Centinela and Sausal RedondoD
Rancho, and driven over the land described in
your advertisement. a With all my experience
in the southern part of California, have seen
nothing to surpass this tract in fertility of soil
beauty of location, and advantage of easy ac-
cess and salu brity OF climate. For purposes of
colonization, know of no large body of land
SO near growing commercial centre in Cali
iornia or elsewhere, TO equal IL. No part of it
Is unavailable for farms, orchards or home
steads. 1t can be subdivided into lots ranging
from five acres to several hundred acres and
every acre of it can be made productive. Water
is abundant and convenient. The land is
subject to easy irrigation; and can vouch for
the fact that it Will produce anything that
hourishes in Los Angeles or Santa Barbara
counties. 1t Is my confident opinion that the
value of shares in This magnificent tract viii
be quadrupled within two years-such is the
extraordinary influx OF immigration to the
vicinity of Los Angeles at the present time
Wishing you success in your undertaking,
am, very truly yours, ]. Ross BROWNE.
