possession Of the county by tax sale,
and it is now proposed to wait and

to DR.. Turner in 0lden times, now the
Byrne block, Was worth . thousand
dollars moro after tho wooden build
ings on it had been removed by fire,
than it was before, and it is safe to
say that the Pacific corner would be
materially enhanced in value by the
same process.
