Lot with n Costly Lien.
,om the Chicago Inter-oeean.

FROM the Chlcago inter-Dcedn.
A mortgage of $50. DOC, 900 on a tiny town
lot is rarely recorded in real estate annals.
The city of San Jose. Cal, has within its
limits a little patch Of ground which has
actually borne an incumbrance of these
stupendous proportions
The story of this lot is the story of an
unpaid note. Away back in 1851 David c.
Vance, its owner. borrowed from Jackson
Lewis the sum Of $1,000. at the then cur
rent rate of interest of per cent per
month to be computed monthly, security
being the real estate and its improvements.
