Enoch Anderson and Hug Anderson from Yorktown visited eastern New York state last week to inspect abandoned farms for sale. They found a 220 acre farm with a good house and furniture advertised at 5500 dollars but doubted access by rough hills. They noted 160 acres advertised as level land but believed it had shrunk to about 40 acres. They disliked the east except for a few towns.
