Canals and Canopies and a Public Sale Document
A garbled notice mixes unrelated quotes with a 1939 real estate commissioner's sale preview. It describes a court-ordered sale of real estate in Cleveland County North Carolina to satisfy a docketed case involving Velma Huffstetler and others against Way Huffstetler Clara Huffstetter and John Huffstetler. The sale lists a three and one half acre tract in No 4 Township with specified boundary calls and a December 22 1939 auction at the courthouse door in Shelby. The document bears commissioner BE Harris as signatory.
