Land Records: Brenton (1845)

Alexandria Gazette
21 October 1845

A SMALL FARM IN PRINCE WILLIAM FOR SALE. -- I wish to sell my farm in Prince William county, called BRENTON.  It lies on Slaty Run, about four miles from Brentsville, contains two hundred and thirty-six acres, originally good, and is readily improved by clover and plaister.  The improvements are a DWELLING HOUSE, with two large rooms on the firts floor, and three on the second, with a good cellar and the usual outhouses. If a larger quantity of land is desired by the purchaser it can be purchased at a fair price of Mr. Lucian Dade, who owns a large tract adjoining Brenton. Northern men, who desire a small farm, in a neighborhood remarkable for health, good society, convenience to mills, post office, and places of religious worship, are invited to examine for themselves. If not sold previously at private sale, this Land will be offered at public auction, at Brentsville, on the 1st. Monday in November next. For terms, which will be accommodating, apply to James H. Ried, at Brentsville.
