Per Annum cor First Three Years, and 8 Per Cent, afterwards. MACLEAN BROTHERS (in conjunction with Mr Henry Driver), instructed by Frederick Wayne, Esq., of Akatore, will submit to auction, at Watson's Rooms, High street, on the above date, One-half of his AKATORE ESTATE, Consisting of — 22 Farms, varying in extent from 50 Acres to 550 Acres each. This property is one of the choicest on the coast line of Otago, the soil being of excellent quality, and the climate all that can be desired for the growth of cereals, root crops, or English grasses. A large portion of the land to bo sold is at present under crop, and intending investors are respectfully requested ta pay an early visit of inspection. The situation is very convenient, being from six to ten miles off the Milton railway station. The exposure is really good, and no part of the property has ever been affected either by floods or droughts. Crops of all descriptions have been grown with tbe greatest success, and, as regards yield per acre, comparing favourably with that of any other district in the South. THE TERMS OF PAYMENT fixed by the proprietor are a convincing proof of his estimate of the values and capabilities of the farms: — One-fourth cash, the balance on mortgage for a term of years at 5 PER CENT. for first three years, and 8 per cent, afterwards. Or the purchaser of any farm may, if he desires, convert the purchase into a LEASE FOR TWENTY-ONE YEARS, with purchasing clause, at 3, 7, 14, and 21 years, at a rental of 5 per cent, on the purchase-money for first three years, and 8 per cent, afterwards. Mr Wayne, who desires to proceed to Europe, has had the various farms valued by Mr Henry Driver and Mr John Maclean, to whose judgment he baa left the fixing of upset prices. Intending purchaser may therefore rely upon it that fair and reasonable values will be accepbed. Pinna and conditions of sale and lease may be seen at the offices of MACLEAN BROTHERS, Dunedin and Balclutha ; Or, HENRY DRIVER, 18ja Bond street.
