TO BE SOLD,
J A LEASE fcr ftven years,from tie "15th March next, in that
capital and beautiful FARM, called
P R O S P E C T-H ILL,
j Situated within one quarter of a mile fron the Brandywine
I Mills, and half a mile from the borough of Wilmington.
„j r I dwelling house is built of stone, two stories high,
I genteely finiftied, and contains four handf>me rooms on
I a floor, befidcs an entry, with capital garrets, and convenient
°" I cellars. It is generally thought to command the mod a
1g I greeable profpeft ot the Delaware, from the source of that
I live! to tW Capes. This profpeft ia gieptly ernbeliilhed by
I a full view of avail body ot meadow, through which the
I Chriilia/ia and Brandywine crccks are seen winding in beau-
I tiful meanders. Near the house are a Kitchen, a spacious
I stone flable and hayloft a barn, a carriage house, mifk
-1 house, See. and a well of as pute water as any on the conti
j nent. The garden contains an acre and quarter of land, a-
I hounding with fruit, and particularly with peach trees, iof
I the very belt kind, brought tiora Maryland, and in tull bear-
I ing. There is, moreover, on the place, a young, apple
I orchard beginUw to bear, and leveral old trees that produce
118 1 abundantly, bcfide* cherry and other ornamental trees, in
I great numbers. The farm consists of near sixty acres of Und,
I of good quality, 'and clear of incumbiances, except taxes,
I twenty ot which erenow iu excellent clover and timothy,
ds, I and ten more will be ready lor lowing next spring. A re
the I fid;nceot nearly 8 yearj has convinced the fubferiber that
np- I the fituatien is rcmvtkably hcalihy. The great post road
it- I from Philadelphia to the Southward runs within seventy
ow I yards of the house. In a word, the beauties and conveni
d a I ence of thiifituation cannot be enumerated in an advertise-
I ment, and when examined, will probably command the at
iec I tention of any person who isdcfimus of living at on« of the
ted j moll elegant country feats on the continent. The purebefer
ni! I may enter on the premiss nCstfpnnf, or perhaps, this fall,
