“50,000 Acres of land on the head-waters of Kickapoo Creek and the Poluxy River in Erath County twenty miles from the new and flourishing town of Stephenville. These lands are admirably adapted for a large emigrant party, as they combine all the natural advantages that can be desired – – rich valley-land, building and rail timber, pure water, eligible and picturesque building-sites, and excellent building stone. Title indisputable and terms easy.” DeCordova, Jacob, Texas: Her Resources and Her Public Men, Waco: Texian Press, 1969.
