A very valuable Merchant Mill,
' A DISTILLERY andfundrySTONE
" 1\ QUARRIES to be let ,
I will rent my merchant Mj'l at the little Falls of Po -
towmac, iFor any term not lsli than seven, nor more than h
eleven years, from the-firft day of September ner.t. The' fe
mill-house is 42 by 40 feet, three stories high, 'ouik with c c
store, and has in it three pairs of French Burr Si >nes, two k
[. overfiiot 18 feet wat.r whe;!s, and Evans's machinery cl
e complete, with every other thing proper and nereffary for ir
carrying on the business with dispatch, and at as little ex- le
penle as possible, *11 in good order.—From the mill to my '•
landing on the Potomac river, (wherecraft, of aiiy bur
then muy deliver grain and take in'flour) it is about
yards, and from thence by water to George-Town anil
the City of Wafllington, about % njiles, and to Alexan
dria about Ii miles. This situation, aided by a fufficii-nt
capital, will command the produce of a very cXtenfivc
"back country, wh»re large quantities of whsat ami other
grain is annually made, the distance to it b?in£ from 8
to 10 miles less than to any market town up -n the navi
gation of the PotOwmac. There are on the premises a
large stone Coopers' (hap, a stone granary, and a commo
dious miller's house. At the landing'aforefaid a bridje
is now huilding nvcr the Potomac, which is in great forf 0
wardnt/s and probably will be Eniihed the ensuing fall. a
There are also on the prtmifes, a Brewery and Diftille- p
rv, built with stone, in them are three Hills, two coppers
or boilers, with'cverv necessary rrticlc, all new, and in k
good order, and fufficiently large to carry cn the Brew- o
ery and Distillery upon a very cxtenfive plan. This prop- ti
erty I will rent for the lame term of yqars. F
Upon my lauds adjoining the premises, apd along the
banks of the river, where craft may lead with ease and dis
patch, is an i rimenfe q lantity of building and founda
tion-ftones. Four quarries are now open, and as many
I*'1 *' more may be opened with ease : the ftoae taken-from these
quarries is better, and has the preference at this market,
to any other stone brought to it. I will rent these quarries
_ separately or tog ther as may best suit.
On the top of the hill, and about 200 yards from the
mill, is a stone Dwelling-house, large enough for the ac
m coir.medation of a family : also, a kitchen, dairy, smoke
house, &c. and a garden, enclosed and in cultivation, the
foiof which is equal in goodness to any in this state. I
h, will also rent this property.
ds Adjoining to the Brewery and Distillery is a Smith's
(hop, in which is a complete set of Blackfinith's tools,
1 which I will also rent, and if agreeable I will hire to the
s: tenant two negro blackfrnitns, one of them is a, complete 5
'5 workman.
"S If I rent nut the stone quarries, I will fell three crafts,
which were built for the purpose of carrying Sone : they
in will altogether bring upwards of 90 perch. Immediate '
poffefficn will be given. For terms apply to the fablcnb- \
ed er in this town.
n- The Mill, Brewery and Distillery, with their appurtcn- J
to ancej, will be deliVerad to the tenant or tenants ih good ]
in repair, and muftbe so returned, at the expiration of the j
lease sr leases,
