The building is most favorably situated, for although within the town, it has still a certain retirement which gives its decided advantages as a family hotel. It is directly opposite the Terrace End Station, and also at the very junction of the Great Napier Road with the Main Street of Palmerston. At that end of the town, and closely surrounding it, there are four saw-mills, I a flour-mill, and other industries which serve to give it one of the most sive bar business in the district. ■ The Auctioneer would draw especial attention to the fact that the present proprietor had the building erected under his own supervision, and that no expense has been spared in making it thoroughly substantial and complete, a fact sufficiently guaranteed to by the large patronage bestowed in the past four years during which it has been in his possession. To a man of moderate means' the above offers an opportunity of investing rarely met with, as the terms are exceedingly liberal, and will be declared at sale, or on application by letter to G. M.
