Abstract

Description

2 leaves (2 pdf pages) ; 28 cm.
Information sent to owners of lands within Peters Colony, originally granted or awarded to persons by the Texas legislature in 1841 and further sold and settled by colonists, by E.S. Graham, real estate and land agent in Graham, Young County, Texas. Graham points out situations in which the presence of squatters and the absence of land owners leads to devaluation of lands within Peters Colony and prevents the sale of lands at a fair market value. His message is that he can be trusted to handle any promotion and sale of said lands at a fair and reasonable cost. He can also be trusted to handle management of said lands with regard to renters.
