There is a frontage of 116 feet on Main Street and 180 on the other street. The wharf boat is coming along rapidly. It will be placed near their house. Mr. Ellis is opposed to its being put above the Bayou. Mr. Gordon? has come back and is preparing to build a warehouse, tavern, etc. Mr. Mattingly would like the seminary to form a company with him for the saw mill.
