TO SELL A WHOLE TOWN
Manchester. N. j., VIII be Knocked DowI
TO the Highest BIddor.

MANCHESTER, N. j., May 9l.--An event
almost without precedent will take plac,
here Wednesday, when Sheriff Chamber,
will sell to the highest bidder the Who'll,
town of Manchester - railroad shops
churches, schools, stores, residences al
but the citizens. This is the result OF til,
action of the Mutual Life Insurance com
pany, of Newark, in foreclosing mort
gage held on the entire town.
The mortgage was given by John Tor
rey. now deceased, In January, 1867. Mr.
Torrey, who was New York financier
practically founded Manchester, buying
up many thousands of acres of land, and
laying out the town. For more thar
twenty years the mortgage seems to have
been hidden away somewhere, people for
got all about it, and property was bought
and sold freely. Many of the householders
are employed in the shops of the Central
Railroad company, and the foreclosure
will prove an especially hard blow to them
