M. G. NASMITH, Secretary, FOR IMMEDIATE SALE. THAT VALUABLE ESTATE NEAB GIS BORNE, known as the— PAPATU BUN. THIS PROPERTY consists of 3168 acres of Freehold Laud, and 1589 of Leasehold, having upwards of 8 years yet to run. It is most conveniently situated, being about II miles from the Port of Gisborne, by a good level buggy road. A considerable part of the Freehold is rich alluvial Flat, equal in quality to any Landin the Poverty Bay District, which is well known as the most fertile in New Zealand. The remainder is good hilly Limestone and Papa country. The whole is well Watered. The Leasehold can be converted into a Freehold without much difficulty, and at a moderate price. THE QUALITY of the Soil is best shown by the fact that although not fully improved, the property is now carrying over 13,000 sheep, besides a number of cattle and horses, and there is abundance of grass. The whole Estate is fenced and subdivided by substantial wire and hard wood fences. There is a small Dwelling House upon the Property : also a large Wool Shed and other Station Buildings, Yards, &c. The whole will be sold, with the Stock belonging to it, as a going concern, and the price will be low, as it must be sold. FREEZING WORKS are to be erected immediately, in Gisborne, thus ensuring a steady market for surplus Stock, and guaranteeing |n ample return for the money invested.
