Mr. Charles M. Council, of Ameficus
has Just closed the most Important

fected here, Involved os It does, 71,000
acres of undeveloped timbered lands
with a cash consideration of $171,000
says the Arnerlcus, (Ga.). Tlracs-Ite-
corder.
This amount—! 171.000—represent s
a fortune In Jtseif, but It Is destined
to more than double Itself to the pur
chaser of this magnificent domain In
the pines. 1
Mr. Council Is receiving many con
gratulations from friends upon his
successful deal.
The silence of this primeval forest
has never been broken by the ring
of the woodman’s axe, and remains
an undeveloped mine of wealth.
Stretching along the Southern bord
ers of four Georgia counties and skirt
ing the nothern limits of the land of
flowers Is this magnificent pine for
est.
The purchase of Mr. Council per
fect titles to this property, which was
once bought by Col. 8. H. Hawkins,

Council llkewlso secures the
Dowling and ft. Lee Ensign Interests.
Mr. Ensign la well known In Aroeri-
cus, and throughout southern Goor-
gla, nn an extensive and successful
lumberman and operator.
With title thus perfected Mr. Council
owns the largest timbered tract In
Georgia, and the most ratable one at
well.
The acqlrement of the vast property
where so many Interess were invol
ved, was long and tedious, necessitat
ing many visits to Florida with his at
torney Judge James A. Hlxon, in the
Anal consummation of the deal.
But success has crowned persistent
efforts, and Mr. Council will reap a
magnificent fortune from his purchase
and that quickly.
It is tho purpose of those Interest
ed to form a company for tho develop
ment of this vast property. Monster
saw mills will be established and tho
miles of the pine forest reduced to
merchantable lumber. As It Is of the
finest quality tho highest prices, will
be obtained for It in tho markets of
the world.
Mr. Council proposese to sell this
company only toe timber on the lana
to bo paid for by the cutting company
as used. The salo of this land Is
not Involved therein. Mr. Council
owning all of the lands anJ selling
to the cutting company the timber
privileges, only, and in which he. too.
Is Interested.
Mr. Charles M. Council will Be presi
