purchased from Frederick Post, Esq,
few weeks ago. We have tried to
hunt up the man with the plans, but
so far the search has proven fruitless.
We know the property was sold, and
believe that the purchaser intends to
make handsome improvement on
same in the shape Of a great big mill,
but the plans have not mnterialized,
but II they have we cannot get on to
them. II anybody has them We
would like to see them for the pur-
pose of writing up the new enter
prize
