HISTORIC WATERVILLE IN VIRGINIA IS SOLD Mansion Erected in Early Part of Eighteenth Century Surrounded by Vast Tracts of Land. Historic Waterville, formerly known as Windsor Shade, overlooking the Pamunkey River in King William County, Va., recently was sold, together with a 1,000-acre plantation, 400 acres | of which are hunting mersh and 60 acres fish pond. The historic mansion is said to have been erected in the early part of the eighteenth century. The house is large and roomy, with massive foundations of stone. It is said the house was once | used as a fortress. The residence is remarkable for its great chimneys, which have been studied. by architects engaged in the construction of homes of Colonial de- sign. The house was built by descend-| ants of Willlam Claiborne and later owned by the Ruffins. The brick work is of Flemish bonds, with glass head-| ers, typical of the period. The old tap| room in the basement still presents its, original appearance, and the basement | fireplace has an opening of eight feet.! ‘The original crane is still in use. There is preserved here a piece of pig fron which was smelted at the old Prin-| ciple furnace, with which the father of | George Washington had a contract for hauling ore in 1750. Also on the place are the ruins of a much older house.’ One of the brick bears the date of 1800 and was undoubtedly imported to the Colony from England soon after v.hel first settlement. OIL TAX BILL PASSED AUSTIN, Tex, April 22 (P)—The, *Texas House yesterday passed and sent o the Senate a bill sponsored by Gov. Miriam A. Ferguson to levy a gradu ated tax on the production of oil.
