mer there.

Things are booming along the 
North Shore. The splendid weather 
of the last fortnight has put a decid- 
ed spring-like aspect on everything. 
Estates are being put in trim, re- 
pairs and improvements are being 
made, and in many eases, houses are 
being put in readiness to open. 
Mechanics are busy on numerous 
building contracts along the Shore, 
including work at the Philip Dexter 
estate in Manchester, the finishing 
of the A. L. Devens’ cotttage, also 
in Manchester; work on the Hutch- 
inson stable and garage at Beverly 
Farms, the construction of Mrs. 
Lucius M. Sargent’s mansion at 
Pride’s Crossing, ete. The contract 
has been awarded this week also for 
the construction of Mrs. Levi Z. 
Leiter’s house at Beverly Farms. 
The contract was awarded the 
first of this week to L. D. Willeutt 
& Sons Co. of Boston for the con- 
struction of Mrs. L. Z. Leiter’s new 
summer mansion at Beverly Farms. 
The house is to be built of tapestry 
brick and will be, when completed, 
oneof the handsomest summer homes 
onthe NorthShore. Workhasalready 
been started with a large force of 
men. The contract calls for the 
house to be completed about Sept. 
20, and it is understood that the 
contractors will work most of the 
time with two or three shifts. Work 
on the stable. and garage was start- 
ed some weeks ago. The property 
which Mrs. Leiter bought is part of 
the Haven estate, three acres in 
extent. It is located between the 
R. S. Rantoul estate and the Haven 
homestead and fronts directly on 
West Beach. 
Deeds were passed yesterday by 
which G. H. Wyatt transfers his es- 
tate at Hast Wenham, just over the 
Beverly Farms line, to Q. A. Shaw, 
2nd. The estate is about 15 acres 
in extent and contains also a dwell-

ing, stable and other buildings. It: 
is opposite Mr. Shaw’s residence. 
Plans are being prepared by E. L. 
Phillips, architect, of Gloucester, 
for a new block, which M. J. Cal- 
lahan intends to build on the site of 
the old building on School street, 
Manchester, next to the fire station, | 
recently purchased from F. B. Rust. | 
Mr. Callahan thought first of im- | 
proving the old property, but de-| 
cided that it would be far better to 
build an attractive block than to re- 
build an old shell. There are enough 
old buildings in Manchester now, he- 
says. The building will be of brick, 
three stories high, with two attrae- 
tive, up-to-date stores on the street 
floor, and four modern five-room— 
tenements above. The entrance to_ 
the upper portion of the building 
would be in the center, and long 
hallways would divide the tene-— 
ments. The work of tearing down 
the old building has already been 
started. The stables in the rear will” 
be repaired and moved to the back 
of the lot for use of those who may 
occupy the stores, if needed. |
