mer owner of the property, together with

Originally the Three Sisters, which, ac-
cording to legend, received their name
from the fact of three young ladies having
been drowned in that vicinity, were bare
rocks protruding from the middle of the
stream AS the years have passed accre-
tons of mud and earth have become at
tached to the rocks. until now they are
quite surrounded with land which is over
grown with vegetation and make islands of
considerable size.
The Three Sisters viii be offered prob
ably at auction under the courts decree and
are considered by some to be an ideal Ioca-
ton for boat house, and for this purpose
may bring fair price.
