| SLOPING MEADOW is the name given
the farm of Mrs. E. G. Donald. Postoffice address, Moravia, R. F.
D., No. 19. The property consists of fifty acres, located on Lot 77, near
Wallace Corners, which is five miles to Moravia and Genoa and sixteen to
Auburn. There is a fine variety of fruit on the place, and hay and grain
and dairying and vegetables form its resources. There is no waste land on
Sloping Meadow. The farm name is derived from its topography, there being
a gradual slope toward the west. All buildings are in good repair, and there
are five acres of hardwood timber, mostly maple, and a young grove of sugar
maples. The supply of water is ample. The farm was formerly owned by
Jonathan Donald, who resided here until his death in 1881, when it
came into the possession of John R. Donald, who resided here until
his death in 1891, when it became the property of his wife and children.
Mrs. Donald is now a teacher of School District No. 12. |
