Mr. Oliver Not at Home.
Just across the river frpm St. Michael’s
is one of the most fertile farms in Talbot
county. Borne years ago a Mr. Oliver
came to this country from England and
purchased this large estate and began
farming. Here he lived for many yean.
He enlarged the house and filled its rooms
with the finest furniture and pictures.
Mr. Oliver was an ecoentrio man, yet very
popular with the neighboring farmers.
But one day Mr. Oliver suddenly disap
peared, locking the doors of his house and
leaving his property in charge of his ten
ant.
Everything in his Talbot home is just
as it was kept by Mr. Oliver years ago.
The supper table was left standing in the
middle of the floor, not a plate or any of
the food having been removed. Even the
rubber boots which Mr. Oliver had worn
on the day of his departure are left on the
floor, and not a piece of the furniture has
been removed from its original place. The
interior of the house is just as it was when
the old bachelor resided there, save for the
thick coating of dust. No one has ever
heard of Mr. Oliver. He left no instruc
tions with his tenant for the disposition
of his property, nor has any relative ever
come forward to prove his claim to pos
session. The house is a massive structure
of bricks said to have been imported from
Englabd. It is said that Mr. Oliver is
still living in Virginia, and that he is
aware of all that is going on at hie farm.
