The largest public land sale in the his

Twenty-three tracts, varying in size
from II to 200 acres, and many of them

county, We're put up and sold to the
highest bidder at the court house door.
This land was all the property Of Capt.
Il. I. Williamson, and lies in Mark 5
Greek, Swift Greek, Barton's Greek and
st. Matthews townships and in Raleigh.
Though much of it has been greatly inn
proved within the last few years, it yes

what was paid for it ten years ago-and
it was not cash sale, either. Hardly
an acre of it brought anything like it's
real value, and yet it is claimed by some
