a two story frame house with q lot Tx
80 feet, on the west side of Union street
betw en- Seventh and Eighth streets,

The reason that only one house was
offered, was on account of the extremity
low price at which it was sod, and It
was feared that the others would hot
bring any better prices. Considering
the location, and the rates al which
ground is held in the immediate vicinity
these lots sold at a very low figure and
those who failed to attend possibly
missed chance of securing site tor
homr, or of making profitable in
vestmeuJ.
