Every man of culture win) ea petits to make Columbia his permanent home has a personal interest in making it a pretty, a "green country town" as pos sible.

Now r cpnvelvo that the preservation of the ancient Wright mansion on Second street, withits rural -looking old front and most graceful' mantle - of Amerham 'ivy decorating it in the summer with A green and in auttitnn with a crimson Gothic tra cery, to be an act of, this kind, and I for one should be extremely loath to gee the old honteStead destroyed. It is well known to those who are per sonally intimate with thafarnily to whom it belongs that its destrael ion would be re garded as something approaching a ca lamity.
