nTHER PROPERTY.

Robert Bolton, in 1Iy9, transferred one
half of this tract to William Wallace for
the consideration of 1920, but in 1904 the
latter conveyed the same interest to John
Bolton, receiving therefor the sum Of $l4,-
600. The whole of this, by various titles
and transfers, passed through the hands
of G. b. Lamar, Richard Richardson,
Robert Flournov and Arthur NJ. Blake to
Daniel Blake and Robert aud Joseph Hab-
ersham, and in the old deeds was de-
scribed as the rice mill of Daniel Blake.
Finally, title to the entire tract be-
came vested in the Habersham family,
where it now rests-Wm. Neyle Haber-
sham, Esq, owning one-half, and other
members of the family the remainder.
Upon this is located the well-known Up
per Rice Mill.
