Deacon died seized, viz: No. 1--That Valuable Mill Property, FARM AND TIMBER LAND, Known as Birmingham, where the said dec'd. resided, containing about 135 ACRES OF LAND, about 75 acres of which is valuable Wood Land, about 15 acres superior Bottom Meadow, and the remainder Arable Land, adapted to the growth of Grain or Grass--with an apple Orchard and other Fruit Trees thereon.-- The Buildings consist of a large and commodious 2 story FRAME MANSION, with Barn and Carriage House pertaining thereto; 5 Tenant Houses, and a Stable belonging to each; a large and convenient GRIST MILL, that has done a very extensive amount of custom work ever since it was established, beside the merchant grinding, which can be extended, as there is rarely ever any scarcity of water in the stream.
There is a large Woolen Factory, Fulling Mill and Saw Mill. Also, a Wheelwright and Blacksmith Shop--all of which have a very good run of custom. The above Mill Property can all be put in first-rate repair with little trouble and at trifling expense--as the flood-gates, fore-bay, tumbling-dam, and the foundations thereof, have been newly put in within the last two years.
