Just west OF Dallas. incidentally
where II was attempted has been
found to be land with valuable de-
posits good for making cement. The
ground has never had the appear

Development uf the land Tor farm

dry farming was by r.. Remond,
who also had ideas the land had

and clnys good for pottery. Inex-

abandon their project. and many
moved into Dallas.

refugees from France. most of
whom were men who had dlstin-
guished themselves In politics or
science. They settled on the hill
west Of Dallas which IN called West
ern heights and which was then
dnown as Flanders heights. The
Colonists took up agriculture and
built houses still OF stuff quarried
from the hills. Only two or three
houses still stand and they are In n
dilapidated condition.

efforts that tho existence OF gold In
discovered, hut N was found to he
