ALCOHOL TREATMENT GROUP BUYS ALEX HALEY'S FARM

Alex Haley's estate is selling the late author's farm for $1.1 million for use as an alcohol rehabilitation and research center, principals in the sale said.

A contract to sell the 127-acre farm was completed this week, said lawyer Paul Coleman, who represents Haley's estate.

The sale agreement with Behavorial Medicine Concepts of Tennessee includes plans for a public museum at the site.
