LANDS IN MONQUHITTER FOR SALE.

On Friday the 5th day of July next, at 6 o'clock afternoon, there will be exposed to sale by public roup, within the New Inn, Aberdeen,

THE LANDS and ESTATE of ASLEID, lying in the Parish of Monquhitter, and County of Aberdeen, containing 236 acres, and at present let to sundry Tenants for £73.

As also, the 5th Lot of the  LANDS of GREENS, in the same Parish, possessed by John Kennedy and others, containing 138 acres, and renting about £40.

These lands will be sold together, or separately.  They are for the most part arable; capable of great improvement, and well supplied with moss; on Asleid, there is a tolerable Mansion-house, and some Wood.  At the expiry of the leases, more than double rent will be got for some of the possessions, and a great increase on the others.
