More than 500 people assembled at twe Charles M. Jarvis farm in South Berlin this morning eager to seize the land sales offered them by M. H. Ried, auctioneer. Many local rea estate dealers were also present. Before opening activities, Atuctioneer Ried took the stand and offered several farm implements which had not been sold at the auction held Wednesday. Sqveral farmers did the bidding. Following the sale of the farm im- plements, the auctioneer opened the sales of the extensive lands, the first bid being given by H. R. Garden of South Manchester. Col. Jarvis, pro- prietor of the land, was at the ground giving the purchasers the exact area af the land they had bought He stat- ed that much of the land had been sdid at a lower price than what it had cost him several years ago. 1t was announced that all land which was not sold at the auction fo- day would be placed on sale at the home of Col. Jarvis during the next twa weeks. Besides these lands there are many buildings on the lower end of the property which will also be placed on sale. Persons interested in | tese buildings can confer with Mr. Jarvis, who will ‘sell everything but his home on Worthington Ridge.
