a deed conveying thlr,ynve acres
OF farm land adjoining 'Chantilly" for
the sum of $3.50 was recorded yes
terday morning In the clerks office OF
the ienrico county Circuit Court. Tins
RECTANGULAR plot of land, too valuable
at its present price for farming, was
sold for tho remarkable figure of ST.

with tho growth OF the city, being
even nearer to the corporate limits
than "Chantiily. Al one end of the
tract is the Broad street Road and
the extension OF Park Avenue at tho
other. The proposed continuation Of

clearly Illustrated by this sale. The
records of Icnrico county court show
that MIR. Lipscomb secured this proper
