Big Land Sale in Rocky Mount

Rocky Mount is the coming
great industrial city of North Car
DINA, if not of the South, therefore
there can be no better investment
in the world than in Rocky Mount
grit, We would therefore address
every one wishing to make money
to attend the great auction sale of
lots, which will be held at that
place on the 10Th day Of June
There is no question, but that a
person purchasing lots on that day
will be able to more than double
their money within the next few
months, as that portion of the town
lying between Thomas st. and Tar
river, now owned by the Rock
Mount Improvement and Manufac-
turing Company, Will soon be the
most valuable portion of Rocky
Mount.
One OF the largest buildings in
Eastern Carolina Is now being
erected on the property and ar
rangements have been made by
which large manufacturing plants
Will be erected on this property
during the summer. Architects
are now making plans and speclfi-
cations for large number of ele
CANT private residences the erection
of winch Will be commenced at once.
The 10Th of June will be one of
the Digest days Eastern Carolina
has ever known. There will be an
OK roasted whole, a balloon ascen-
sion by the Grace Shannon Balloon
Co, OF Lady Alronants, who Will
drop deed for valuable lot, from
the clouds, which will be the prop.
erty OF the finder.
There will be also an elegant
Brass Band in attendance. Tickets
VIII be sold at reduced rates on all
railroads, and any one buying
lot for 5000 or over Will have their
railroad fare refunded. 1t is going
to be big time. Every body should
make 1t a point to be at Rocky
Mount on June 18th.
