MADE a FORTUNE.
JUDGE PHILIPS. OF TARBORO,
PROSPERED IN NORFOLK.

The following was taken from Sun
days News and Observer:
The friends of Judge Fred Phillips.
OF Tarboro. will congratulate him upon
hi: good fortune by which he recently
made cool hundred thousand dollars.
The Tarboro Southerner says the Judge
has recently sold the last OF his land
adjacent to Norfolk. Va, for $4,000.
I'm 1874, when this land was sold at
auction it was purchased by Judge
Philips for $4,000. A few years ago he
sold portion of it for $50. 900. and now
he sells the balance for $4,000. This
gives profit of $i25,O0O. The interest
on the investment for the twenty-fiv
years and the commissions paid for
selling the property may be said to re-
duce the net profit to slO0, 000-a very
comfortable fortune, all due TO the wis
dom and far-sight of the wise and sue
cessful Judge"
The last property handled here by
Judge Philips was sold to the Kensiug-
ton Company.
