I purchased the above farm six years since. It had been rented out 

 to A, B, and C, for several years previous, and at the time of purchase 

 would not rent for more than $100 per annum. The part then im- 

 proved has been overhauled to the depth of ten inches, and fifty acres 

 of improvement added.
