L. b. Deaton has traded his farm
of 200 acres five miles southeast of
Farber for property in Columbia,
says the Farber Forum. Mr.. Deaton
gets in exchange a large fraternity
house, now renting at $50 per month,
also desirable piece of residence
property in one of the prettiest parts
of the city. He will move his family
to Columbia, where his two boys are
attending school. We are sorry to
know that Mr.. Deaton and family
are to leave our community. They
are splendid citizens.
