hundred and forty seven acres, lying on the Potomac river, and adjoining land 
of Thomas Buchanan, Esq. and the land of Mr. Samuel Lynch:  Also, the half of 
an Island, in the Potomac, containing seven acres and three quarters.  These 
lands are as good, and as well adapted to grain and clover, as any in the 
county.  There are about fifteen acres of river bottom, thought to be as good 
as any bottom from Cumberland to the mouth of said river.  The buildings are a 
good log dwelling and kitchen, a smoke house, corn crib and stable -- Also, two 
apple orchards and a peach orchard in the height of bearing.  Persons wishing 
to purchase, may see the lines, by applying to Mr. Benjamin Meades, living on 
Chew's farm, and near the premises.  An indisputable title will be given and 
possession may be had immediately -- The terms will be made easy, and due 
attendance given, at the time and place of sale, by
