10 11 .12 .13 Ocean Avenue, Corner Kings Highway, Brooklyn. And the "Opening" 5till 5 Days AwayMonday, the 11th. Isn't it astonishing The opening of each new suburb seems to go better than the last. It's difficult to express our sense of deep appreciation at the way the great people of a great city have taken us absolutely at our word. Saturday was stormy Sunday muggy and threatening and not attractive for sight seers but a people who mean business are not easily stopped, and this kind came unceasingly.

Old customers, to become new buyers, and old customers' friends. New customers in the morning and with their friends in the afternoon Thus the lots melted away! 1 1 To understand our visitors' appreciation and ths talk you must really see Kings Oaks. And if you only DO see it you'll surely understand that with its park like improvements its noble oaks its unsurpassed location on the broad boulevard, Ocean avenue Kings Oaks is unquestionably and indisputably the Gem of all Brooklyn 1 1 There are still good lots left as good as the best. Why not come now instead of waiting and buying some one else out at a premium three months later For two thirds of the people in this world buy anything after prices have risen. There are lot owners to day at Oak Crest and The Lindens who'll willingly testify that had they not waited till after the opening, they'd have bought to MUCH better advantage.

They've come to this sale in good season, and brought their friends with them to buy it's an endless chain, and as true as you live EVERY LOT will be wiped off the map before Opening Day it's a question of AT ONCE if you mean to secure a home site at THE GRANDEST PROPERTY NOW LEFT IN BROOKLYN 42x36 45x36. 50x36 54x36 Handsome Couches, with fringe, S3.00; worth $5.00.

When we got the castaways, whose number had been swelled by this time to eleven, on board, he set sail and some ten or eleven days later we came across a disabled junk which was sinking fast, with two men on board.

We took them on the Manhattan and a day or two later we came across a number of fishing boats, near the Japanese coast.

But Captain Cooper firmly said that he deserved some consideration for his good treatment of the castaways and finally, after much dispute, had his way and was towed by several boats into Yeddo harbor. Great precautions were taken by the Japs that none of our crew should land, and to this end a cordon of small boats, three deep, encircled our ship. Durinc: the night time these boats were illuminated by wax candles, placed on long poles, which made a very pretty picture. The Manhattan was allowed to stay three days, during which time she was well supplied with all necessaries but at the end of this time we were forced to leave, much to our regret.

We had the satisfaction of knowing that our ship was the first vessel of any foreign nation ever allowed in a Japanese port.
