The sale of the farms belonging to
the Clayton Estate, was made on
Tuesday by j. Groome Steele, Trustee
and w. S. Evans, Attorney, as adver-
tised in the WHIG, and attracted
large number of prospective buyers
and interested spectators. The farm,
tenanted by Nathan Mccoy, in the
Second district, and containing 333
acres, was bought by Mrs. j. Groome
Steele, one of the heirs, for $4,000.
The other Second district farm, ten
anted by Frank S. Clayton and con-
tanning 492 acres, was bought by Mr..
Clayton himself, another one of the
heirs, for $4,000. The First district
farm, near Cecilton and containing
259 acres, was bought by Mrs. Carrie
Algire for $15,800. The total amount
of the sales was $49,100. The first
and second farms brought much less

would bring, while the third farm
went greatly beyond anticipated fig
ures.
The farms were sold in order to eff
feet a settlement of the estate and
division of the property.
