John ". and Miss Emma Harvey
and Mrs. Annie Il. Carroll. who are
heirs of the Jacob Keister estate, to
NJ. X. Farmer Of this city. the con.
sideration being $4,000.
The present opera house was
bull, or rather completed in 1880
By a Mr.. Louis Hessimer. a man
well known in Saline county by all
old residents. The house cost MIR.
liessimer $4,000 who borrowed
the none, from Jacob Kei>ter. Mr..
Hessimer found he had made a poor
investment a. the building was too
expensive, and the property finally
went to Mr.. Keister and was bought
on Monday from his heirs, Mr..
Keistcr having been dead some IS
years.
We congratulate Mr.. Farmer up.
on his having made a splendid IN.
vestment. Mr.. Farmer is an Ell.
terprising business man who knows
a good thing when he sees II and
the fact that he has made this pur.
chase shows his perfect confidence
in the future growth of our little
city. Mr.. Farmer will sometime in
the near future refurnish and repair
the entire interior Of the house and
in 81 doing will greatly improve its
appearance and the lower RI, ms
will still bc used as bushes, houses.
