one side by the broad Potomac
and on the other by the snug lit
tie harbor of Neale Sound, offers
acreage tracts with long water
frontage. Here one can find abSo-
lutte privacy and Seclusion with
out isolation. The developers plan
Woodland Point to meet the need
of those who want more than Just
a small waterfront lot, for these
tracts of two acres and up are
really little farms. Part of the
property is beautifully bordered
and part is in rolling fields with
rich oyster shell loan, ideal for
gardens, flowers, etc.
Woodland Point is a part of
WolleSten Manor, an original
grant surveyed in 1912 for Capt.
James Neale, member of the Gov
ernor's Council and Commissioner
of His LordShop'S treasury in 1860.
The site of the original Manor
House built in 1861 and burned to
the ground not many years ago is
nearby.
The Potomac at this point is
almost eight miles wide and offers
many attractions to the outdoor
lover, fishing, grabbing, bathing,

joyed directly off the property.

OFFICIALS TRYING TO BRING
GAS RATE NATTER TO HEAD

Mayor w. E. Medley and Coun-
Gilman Byrl Ford of the utilities
committee of the McConnelsville
council, were in Columbus Tuesday
for the purpose of bringing to a
head negotiations between the vii
lage and the Ohio Fuel Gas COM
pary, relative to- councils demand
in place Of the SIC rate now in
force. The officials investigated the
tax returns of the Ohio Fuel Gas
company for the village and found
that the sworn statements of the
Ohio Fuel as to valuation have been
increased for the current year from
S17,080 to $4,000, or approximate
ly $1,000 increase.
Mayor Medley and Councilman
Ford regard this minor increase in
valuation as being a continuation of
the companys policy Of evading
what the local officials believe is
the payment of it's fair share of
taxes in McConnelsville. The Off.
cials were unable to contact the
president of the Ohio Fuel, or the
executive vice president, to get the
answer OF the company to the Nc
Connelsville councils proposal of
56c gas for McConnelsville, but not
flied the company that the answer
must be in the hands of Mayor Med
ley by Monday, Oct. 25, or the prop
er proceedings will be instituted
against the utility
Mayor Medley and Councilman
Ford interviewed various experienc-
ed engineers with reference to the
of the property of the
Ohio Fuel in McConnelsville, and
will complete those negotiations af
ter Oct. 25, unless the Ohio Fuel
Gas company cuts the gas rate in
McConnelsville.
