Summary
Details concerning the progress of construction upon the Bedford House. Slacked lime of good quality has been contracted for. Several ejectment actions were commenced while he was at Bedford and the residents have retained him in 27 of the causes. Major Lyons probably will remain on the Jay farm; the rumor of his moving is apparently unfounded.
