Of tobacco for each lot beside surveyor's fees. " Shortly alter this time Aaron Latham purchased two of these lots, upon one of which he erected a small wooden house. Subsequently he wished to exchange them for another lot near the river, upon which he proposed to erect a larger house. The reason he gave for wishing to be nearer the river was tliat he was afraid of a conflagration that might consume his house. The house, whicli now stands upon this point, is very old and was no doubt considered... a fine specimen of architecture when it was built. The cor- nice is very elaborate and probably is entirely different from any other now extant in this county. The house is said to have been occupied by the sheriff of the county during the time that the court met there, and its appearance and arch- itecture indicate that such may have been the fact. After the removal of the court to Court House Point the ferry across the Elk River became one of the most import- ant ones in the county. A brick house was erected on the north side of the river, which was used for a tavern for maTiy years.
