EXCELLENT WATER-POWER AND MILL TO LET
THE MILL in Suburban South, commonly called "Ryder's Mill," will be LET. The dam and water-power have been greatly improved by the late tenant, Mr. Edwards, and the premises are worthy the attention of any person wishing to erect a flour mill. The section, except five acres already under lease, may be taken with the mill. Immediate possession. Apply to the Resident Agent, Nelson. Nelson, June 2.
