Larabton-quay. MR. FRANCIS SIDEY is instructed to Bell by public auction, at the salerooms of Benjamin Smith and Co,, on the above date— I. TOWNSHIP OP MIDHURST. TOWNSHIP OF MIDHURST. Bounded on one side by the far-famed Waimate Plains. UNRESERVED SALE. 53 t tTjv n 63 SUBURBAN SECTIONS In the above Unrivalled Township. Midhdrst stands in the centre of one of the richest and most magnificent tracts of agricultural land in New Zealand, and being on the Trunk Line of Railway, and having roads radiating from the town into the rich surrounding country, possesses advantages unequalled by those of any other inland town. Midhurst is exactly half-way between Hawera and New Plymouth, being 22 miles distant from each place. The Railway from New Plymouth will, in the course of a few months, be opened to MidHORST, where the Wanganui and Wellington coach will meet the train. A large portion of the country round Midhurst has been sold as a small farm settlement, and occupied by bona fide settlers. The absence of timber for either fencing, firewood, or building purposes on the open plains ,of Patea, Hawera, and Waimate, will create a brisk demand for the excellent timber in the neighborhood of Midhurst as soon as the line is open for traffic. Large sums of money are now being expended on public works in and around Midhurst, and investors will do well to embrace this opportunity of securing allotments _in what promises to be one of the most flourishing inland towns in New Zealand. * 11.
