price as $110,000- Tour other statements with reference to the
property are also inaccurate, save that it is true that a one-quar¬
ter interest sold in May, IStiS, for $18,000, but even that state¬
ment gives a wrong impression, for then the property was subject
to the unexpired term of a lease for 21 years, from February 1,
IStiO, at a low rent, with a right in the lessee to remove the
building during the last ten days of the term-
On behalf of the owners, our clients, we reauest that you cor¬
