ITIPORTaIvT TRtST^^^^^
A hare Opportunity for Profitable Investment.
By virtue of a Deed of Trust executed by Daniel Clark
on the 10th day of July, A. D. 1858, and registered
in the Office of the Register of (Cumberland County,
in Book D No H, page 271, I shall sell to the highest
bidder, at the Market Hou.se in Fayetteville, on TUES
DAY the l.^^t day of FEBRUARY, A. D. 18.59,
ONE OF THE MOST VALUABLE TRACTS OF
L.\ND IN N. CAROLINA, situate, lying and b«ing in
the (,'ounty of Cumberland, on the waters of Big Rock-
tish, six miles from the town of Fayetteville, aud con
taining about Two Hundied Acres—seveuty-five or one
hundred acres is Swamp Laud, which for depth and fer
tility of soil, and lor easy cultivation, is fully ecjual to
the rich loam lands of the Mississippi valley:—the whole
Tract is highly improved, and, from the judicious course
of husbandry the jiroprietors of this land have uniform
ly pur:-ued, it is believed that there is no laud in thLs
State which w^ill yield to the farmer a more a1)undant
return for his labor. There are on the premises, good
wofnis, ways anii wat**s, a comfortable Dwelling aud
commodious out-houses.
■\t the same lime and place 1 shall sell, either as part
aii'l parcel of said Land, or sepiirately, ; as I may then
deem most advisable,) the celebrated
McNEILIi .SAW MILL.S, and Seven and Two-fiflhs
Acres of L.and, adjacent and apjmrteuant thereto.
These Mills are built on Big Rockfish (Jreek, three
miles, as the stream flows, from the Cape Fear River;
they are iti excellent running order, and the two saws
cut FOfR Tiiors.^NU fEET OF LiMUER per day: the sup
ply of water is con-^tant and never-failing, logs way b«
rafted from any point above directly to the mills’ slide,
and the Lumber may be put into the Wilmington mar
ket in thirty-six hours after leaving th^ saw-carriage.
Taking into consideration the great natural advan
tages and the very valuable improvements of the afore
said property, this sale is recommended to the attention
of all persons who wish to invest money in that which
will produce Urge profits and give quick returns.
Terms at sa’.ti.
