VALUABLE FARM I 



IN ORANGE COUNTY 

 FOR SALE AT AUCTION. 



AS* my business engagements in 

 Richmond me such as to prevent ine 

 from giving that attention to my farm- 

 _j§3|^png operations that they require, I have 

 determined to sell my farm in Orange Co, at auction, 



On THURSDAY, 17th July next. 

 HAWFIELD 



is situated in one of the most healthy, fertile, and in 

 all respects, desirable sections of Virginia, being im- 

 mediately ut the foot of the Southwest Mountains, and 

 less than five miles from the Rapid Ann Station on 

 the Orange and Alexandria Railroad, also within a few 

 miles of the Plank Road from Orange Court-House to 

 Fredericksburg. It contains, by recent survey, 950 

 acres, of which 600 are cleared and in a high state of 

 improvement. The whole of it is set beautifully in 

 Orchard grass, Timothy and Clover. A large portion 

 of the tract is branch meadow land, and as both bot- 

 tom and high land is very productive of grass, there 

 can be raised a very large quantity of hay and stock. 

 It is well watered, having seven constant running 

 stieams on it, and is capable of being divided into 

 fourteen fields of 40 to 50 acres each, with water in 

 all of them. 



There is no waste land on the tract. All that is not 

 cleared is in original growth of timber, and much of it 

 might be cleared with much profit by a tobacco grow- 

 er. As the railroad from Fredericksburg, now being 

 constructed, will pass within a mile of the wood land, 

 the timber could be turned to a good account. 



The buildings are commodious, and in excellent or- 

 der. They consist of a large framed 



DWELLING HOUSE, 



with basement, which, if finished off, would give ten 

 rooms. A few years ago it was painted and put in 

 complete repair. 



Large Stable, Barn, Corn House and Negro Cabins 

 in good order, to which I have added recently a shelter 

 covered with shingles, 100 ^ 50 feet, with hrge hay loft 

 above, and cattle shelter 100 feet long, affording every 

 convenience for the protection of stock, provender, im- 

 plements, &c, &c. 



My operations at HAWFIELD for the past seven 

 years have been with a view to a steady and perma- 

 nent improvement of the land, and I think its present 

 condition will show that I have not been unsuccessful. 

 Besides having over two hundred bushels of wheat 

 eeeded, I have had on the farm for the past year nearly 

 1,000 head of sheep and a good stock of cattle, which 

 shew lhat it is well adapted to grazing. 



It is rarely that a farm in such a condition, and hav- 

 ing such advantages as HAWFIELD, is offered in 

 market. The fences are in excellent repair. The land 

 is entirely clean and in fine heart, clear of bushes and 

 rock, and can be cultivated with as little labor and large 

 profit as any other tract of its size. It is, therefore, in 

 a condition to pay a profit at once, and as I am deter- 

 mined to sell, 1 invite all who wish to purchase a farm, 

 desirable as a place of residence and profit, to exam- 

 ine it previous to the day of sale. 



TERMS. 



One-fourth cash, balance in equal instalments of 1, 

 2 and 3 years, with interest from the day of sale, or, if 

 more desirable to the purchaser, other terms might be 

 agreed upon. 



Mr. John S. Graves resides at HAWFIELD, and will 

 take pleasure in showing the farm to any one who will 

 visit him.
