The purchaser, another farmer found him
no good except for light harness work, and
about eighteen months ago put Robert G. in

THE York AND PEACH BOTTOM SOLD.-The
Baltimore and Lehigh Railroad, which has
been kicked about from court to court, and
which was sold once at United States marshal's
sale, was put on the auction block at York,
Pa, last Saturday, and sold at sheriff's sale.
Saturdays sale places the line into the hands
of Warren Il. Walworth, of Cleveland, Ohio.
AS the road was purchased at the United
States marshal sale by a representative of Mr..
Walworth, there is but little doubt but that
one sale or the other will be confirmed. The
Baltimore and Lehigh Railroad, with all its
real and personal property, and rights and
franchises, was offered first and was knocked
down to Warren T. Walworth, of Cleveland,
Ohio, for 1880 The property rights and
franchises of the Baltimore Forwarding and
Railroad Company was then sold. 1t was
finally knocked down at 1926 to Warren T.
Walworth. The sale places the road in hands
friendly to the reorganization committee, and,
it is said, will put an end to all litigation, and
permit of the line being broad gauged as soon
as the money necessary can be provided. The
road may be running as a broad-gauge line
before next summer. The persons who are
interested in-the purchase of the load have
several important changes in contemplation.
The first step after obtaining possession of
the property will be to reorganZe it as part of
the Maryland division, which was bought in
by the first mortgage bondholders last June.
This title was confirmed, and the property de-
livered to the recognized Baltimore and Le-
high Railroad Company, July 81.
