Suit was entered in the Circuit Court
of this city Saturday, Sept. ID, by the

against Mr.. w. Isaac Johnson, Rev. II.

late Rev. w. W. Browne) Mr. ]. J.

and dollars.

had employed O. ". Meredith, Esq :,

THE vIsIroR FROM NORFOLK.
It seems that several months ago
MIR. Bowman Of Norfolk came to the
city and interested these gentlemen in
lots on the Virginia Beach. He il said
to have represented to them that the
property was clear and offered to trans
Ter the same TO . syndicate composed
of the persons named. They are said
TO have signed q contract by the terms
Of which they were to take charge OF
the lots aggregatinR ten thousand dol
lars, or whatever the number was Cot
aold by Mr. Bowman after efforts mad
been made SO to do in Richmond.
Mr.. Nelson Williams, Jr., represent.
ed the Norfolk syndicate. The lots
did not sell as rapidly as was expected,
and this left largs number which Mr..
Bowman insisted that the Richmond
syndicate should take upon its hand g.
MANY BOUGHT LOTS.
Still many persons here bought lots
at $26 cash on the sandy beach, and it
was stated that q clear title to the
same could and would be given. Like
the long looked for letter, it never
came.
The person in this city became un-
easy and sent u lawyer to Norfolk Co
examine the title to the property.
He searched The court record aud
it is said that he found that when the
the Virginia Beach Company made
the contract with the Richmond syndi-
cate, is did not have a de I'd to the prop
erty, that the said deed since obtaine d
showed & mortgage OF some three
thousand dollars, which MAS also al
legged to be we'll nigh ali that the Nor
folk syndicate had paid for all of the
beach purchased.
BIG PROFIT ON THE INVESTMENT.
1t was discovered then, so it is al
legged that the Richmond people were
TO pay ten thousand dollars for only q
part OF what as q whole had cost only
about the amount specified. There
were some sad hearts in this city and
the persons interested declined to com
ply further with the terms Of the con-
tract until the Virginia Beach Co., lift =
cd the $4,000 mortgage.
All attempts on the part Of the Rich
mond people to come to . satisfactory
agreement having failed, the Virginia
Beach Co, entered suit as herein act
forth The case will hardly come up
before Ostober next. Tbs persons
sued do not seem to doubt their abili-
tg to WIN their side of the controver-
sy.
We are assured that the interests of
those persons who purch ased lots will
be protected and that no loss to them
will take place in any way.
