REAL ESTATE TRANSFER.
Messrs. J. L. Hand and D. W.
Janies Have Invested in
Albany Dirt.
From the Albany Herald.
Mr. D. W. James, of Blakely,
and Mr. J. L. Hand, of Pelham,
yesterday purchased from Mr. M.
\V. Tift a tract of thirty acres of
land directly north of the city.
The land lies west of Oruger &
Pace’s brick yard, between the
Leesburg public road and the
main line of the Central of Geor¬
gia railway.
The tract has long been recog.
nized as one of the most desirable
near Albany as a site for manu
factui ing enterprises, and it is un
dei stood that Messrs. Hand and
James will in all probability have
erected on this land at no distant
date, a large acid chamber and
probably a complete fertilizer
plant.
The land is touched by thepub
lic rogd and the lines of the Cen¬
tral of Georgia and Seaboard Air
Line railways. The purchase
price has not been made public,
but it is understood to have been
high.
This deal is significant as indi¬
cating what sort of f uture lies be¬
fore Albany. There are not two
more successful or better known
business men in South Georgia
than Messrs. James and Hand,
and their readiness to pay a stiff
price for Albany dirt proves that
their confidence in the future of
^the city is strong.
