The Missouri Lincoln Trust Company liquidation sale offers town lots in Potosi within currate limits. Properties range from choicest real estate to fair, intended to fund liquidation while excluding assets necessary for lead and barytes operations. Highest bidder wins, with no future predictions offered. Potosi’s rich mineral backdrop and history are noted.
The text asserts a large baryta bed in Washington County and notes no legal barriers to resuming aggressive work. While there is no guarantee of early operation, the claim highlights extensive annual baryta use and potential countywide population growth, with Potosi as county seat expected to benefit from a developing industry.
The notice promotes selling scarce center Potosi building lots with perfected titles. It compares growth to St Louis and New York, urges investment in real estate as safe, and states sale by Judge Henry L. Sutton with terms of half cash and notes. Earnest money is 10 percent, deed within 15 days, taxes from 1908.
