Delving In Southland Real Estate
The following from St. Petersburg, Fla., Independent, is of interest to the many friends of Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Loveday, who spend their summers in this city:
Saturday afternoon D. C. Loveday sold his five acre orange and grapefruit grove and residence on the Gulfport car line just west of F. A. Wood's residence, to Frank A. Lacount, of Springfield, Mass., for $7,500. The place was advertised in The Independent's Booster column. Mr. Lacount will cut the place up into building lots and sell them. He gets possession of the platting ground at once, but Mr. Loveday will continue to occupy the residence until May first.
When asked if he would leave St. Petersburg, Mr. Loveday answered that he "could not be driven out of the Sunshine City," and that he was going to build a home on his beautiful lot on Bayboro waterfront. He has made considerable money buying and selling St. Petersburg real estate in the last three years and is in love with the city. He is an honorable and excellent man and we are glad to know that Mr. Loveday is to remain with us.
