Geo. Atf- Dial 3 0 CK T uesday
On August 1 7th, at 10 o’clock, I will sell to the highest bidder,
at my old home place, in Newton county, the three fine farms
shown in the above plat. This is my old home place sub¬
divided into three convenient and desirable farms. This is some
of the most valuable farm lands in Newton county. It is a rich
mulatto soil and very productive. It is well situated, being on
the new Covington road and the Covington and Lawrenceville
road. Has R. F. D. service and there are schools and churches
within a short distance. The new Covinfiton road passes thru
each of these farms, and teere are other good roads, making it
easily accessible from all directions. There is abundant water
and timber supply, about 20 per cent, of each farm being in fine
original forest. These are sel-sustaining farms and the man who
is looking for an ideal country home or for a paying land invest¬
ment can’t afford to miss this sale. There are few desirable
farms like these on the market today. In fact these would not
be for sale but for the fact that I am so far from them as to
make it impossible to give them hardly any attention.
Terms of Sale
I have made the terms easy so that this land will pay lor itself. The terms are
as follows : 5 per cent, of the price on delivery of bond for title. I will accept
a good note for the 5 per cent, due Dec. 1, 1909.
* Note for 20 per cent, of price due Jan. 1, 1910.
“ “ 25 . ...... . 44 Jan. 1, 1911.

All notes to bear interest at the rate of 8 per cent.
Remember this land goes to the highest bidder. Don’t forget the date and place.
