REAL ESTATE FOR SALE— RICHMOND. LIGHTNING has certainly struck, and struck hard. Gee whiz! ! but we were surprised when the City and Transportation Companies adopted a rou Staten Island to be built within the next few years, and connected with Annadale—the home of Little Farms—by « run of fifteen minutes. We have never promised purchasers, and hardly hoped for, a subway to Staten Island, and here is one dropped in our lap like a bolt from the blue sky, and what is even more important to you, our prices were all based on present transportation facilities. But the unexpected has happened the impossible has taken place, subways are assured to Staten Island while our prices remain the same. Think of it—an acre in New York City for $1,000— #10 monthly—on transportation—only fifteen minutes from the subway’s entrance. If this offer was made in Chicago, St. Louis or San Francisco, we would be mobbed with buyers, but there are so many flat-foolish and lobster-loving people in New York that this advertisement won't probably raise a ripple. But, what do we care—the longer we wait. the more we get—and the more you, or some one else, pays. ‘To illustrate: For several years we tried to sell you (the public) 97 lots for $9,700-—8100 per lot—IN VAIN; we finally took the property off the market and three years later sold it for Ninety-seven thousand dollars, all cash. You can have the buyer's uame if you want it. We are in the business to sell real estate. We want to give you the chance in prefer- ence to some out-of-towner. Won't you take it?
