Fred Brady, situated in the south
western section of Middletown took
Mace last Wednesday, when 40 of the
lots were disposed Of by S. +. Damer-
on. The lots had been staked OIL ana
all preliminary arrangements made
They were divided into sections. Con
trary to expectations, only a small
crowd appeared and the bidding was
slow. BY noon, however, most of the
lots on the east side Of Cass street
had been sold and a recess was called
for lunch. The ladies of the Century
Club served sandwiches and coffee and
at one o'clock the band gave a concert
in the square, in the hopes of attract
ing a greater crowd At 1.30 the
bidding was resumed and another sec
ton on the west Of Cass street sold
All day long the prices varied greatly
and lots side by side sold for differ
ent prices. They ranged from $50 tC
$110 each. While the crowd was ir
no way enthusiastic nor the bidding
at any time spirited, it might be sale
that the sale was successful as forty
out Of the sixty lots were sold.
