Two Welcome
Visitors Here
ARE MESSRS. 5. III. BOWMAN AND
II. II. BYRER.


That Bluefield is prosperous goes
without saying; its prosperity is be-
ing noised abroad and attracting men
of means and acknowledged ability
to interest themselves in financial
operations. Messrs. Bowman and
ByEer. the former OF Huntington, the
latter from Phillppi, seeing the pos
sibilities offered, purchased por-
ton of the Higginbotham estate in
the East End of the city as soon as
1t came on the market, went out
forthwith to turn it into a residential
suburb, and during the last two
weeks have been busily engaged put
ting 1t on the market. In an inter
view with Mr.. Bowman this morning
he told a Daily Leader representa-
tive that he was more than pleased
with the outlook of the Eastview
estate; lots had been sold to many
of the best citizens of Bluefield who
state their intention OF Immediately
building on their holdings.
Transportation has been assured
for the new addition. fine streets and
all the other necessities of a COM
Portable residential section by the
interchangeable exertions of the own
ers of the property. Their success
is well merited. The pity is that
they can't be induced to take up a
permanent abode in Bluefeld.
