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. —Baltimore Sun.
