Another Old Throg's Neck
Estate to Go at Auction
LorilIard Spencer Holdings,
Where Social Sporting Events
We're Held. To Be Sold

The Lorillard Spencer property in
the Throg's Neck section OF tie Bronx
soon will be divided and sold at auc-
tion. The properly, whicn comprises
1900 lots on Middletown Road, Eastern
Boulevard, with large frontage on
Long Island Sound, will be sold at auc-
tion on the premises on Columbus Day,
October IL, continuing on the following
days.
The properly was acquired by the
original Loriliard Spencer, man of
considerable wealth about seventy-hve
years ago, A 3ew years ago it became
we'll known for large social sporting
events, which were held there. One Of
the first, If not the first, polo matches
in America was staged Oh the property,
and numerous vacht races and water
events had their inception on the Sound
in front Of the estate.
The breaking up Of the estate marks
an important epoch in the development
Of the ,9eelham Bay Park section. Be
cause it has some Of the most attrac-
tive waterfronts on Long Island Sound
and the Pelham Bay division OF the
Lexington Avenue subway is within six
blocks of It's entrance, the Spencer es-
tate has long been regarded as an espe-
cially desirable property.
Mr.. Day, commenting on the sale
yesterday, said: II regard the Loril-
lard Spencer estate lots as the very
cream of the Pelham Bay Park section
waterfront. It is the nearest large
tract to the Pelham Bay-Lextngton
Avenue subway station. It adjoins Pei
ham Bay Park, and is opposite the s1,-
100000 Rice playfield and has q mag
niicent stretch of Long Island Sound
waterfront. In my opinion these Loril-
lard Spencer estate lots that I will sell
