"Smith's Mount"

For sale, That valuable and fertile tract of land in Westmoreland county, called Smith's Mount.  This tract is bounded on one side by the Rappahannock river, and lies about 3 miles below Leedstown; it contains about 1600 acres, 1/3 of which is covered with heavy timber of the first quality; it also abounds with red cedar.  The cleared land is well adapted to Indian corn and small grain, and in general it is equal in quality to any on the river on which it lies.  The dwelling house is in tolerable repair, and at no great expense may be made comfortable, commodious and pleasant.  The out houses are large, convenient, and in every respect sufficient for the purposes of the farm.  It is presumed that it would be necessary to be more particularly descriptive to any one who may be inclined to purchase, as in such case the land itself would be viewed.  The land will be shown by Mr. Daniel Payne, the present occupant; and the terms of sale may be known on application to the subscriber.

Battaile Fitzhugh, Flintshire, near Carson's Ferry, Caroline County, May 30, 1815.
