George James, Llysyronen. Men of means, and ten- ant farmers anxious to know the result, pat- iently awaited the sale. Mr James in ofier- ing Cronllwyn pointed out the admirable features of the estate, and its growing value in view of local developements. It was richly wooded and therefore lent itself to sport. The first offer was by Mr Rule Owen at £ 4,000, then Mr Tombs and Mr Rees, Carne, ran it up by steps of :CIOO, to 15,100. At this point the Auctioneer held a consultation with the vendor, and afterwards announced that the estate would be sold. Continuing the s"le Mr James invited offers of 950, but none were forthcoming, and Mr Rees being the last bidder exclaimed li Down with it! a remark which brought the observation from Mr James that such an exclamation was bad for the nerves. However, the lot was knocked down to Mr Rees for 95,100, for Mr E. D. Jones, of Holland Park, London, and a native of Fisbguard. The Cronllwyn estate comprises the farms known as Cronllwyn, Ddolwen, Tyhen, Creiny, and Mount Pleasant, situate in the parish of Fishguard.-Penybenlog and Glanduadfach,Meline parish, were withdrawn. In was noticed that many from Newport and district were among the audience. This pro- perty was started at 94,000, but as only one bid of £] 00 was added, Mr James after a brief consultation announced that this estate would be withdrawn. He also added that in connection with the latter estate there were twelve acres of oak timber, valued at £ 180 which would be added to the price offered. He was prepared to treat privately. The pro- perties in each case were freehold. Market Day aul Motors.-The beautiful weather on Thursday last brought into town a large number of the district community, together with two very elegantly appointed motor-cars which attracted considerable at- tion and admi-.tion. They brought in for the day, Mr and Miss Griffiths, ot Penally, jth/! held the appoin t. ment for sometime, of dairymaid to the late Queen Victoria. Others were bank inspectors. All partook of luncheon at the Commercial Hotel, and afterwards started away via Goodwick, for home. One distinctive feature of the party was their dust-stained appear- ance, it may be said in familiar parlance that they were up to the eyes in road dust, the stuff having collected around their goggles in drifts. Motoring may be exhilarating, but of doubtful joy, judging by outward appearances. 0 Cricket Fixtures.—After its decisive vic- tory over Haverfordwest on Saturday last, the local cricket club is anticipating extreme activity on Thursday, July 14th, the date of the return match with Honey Harfat" on the new Fishguard field.-Next Saturday Fishguard play the Harbour C.C. at Penrhiw, commencing at 3 o'clock.
