The y death was the second in the Berrier } ome within three weeks, a great grand-daughter of Mrs. Minich, Paul- ine Minich, having died January 8. The deceased had been in ill health for three years. She wns a faithful member of Kinderhook E. C. church. By request of the family y, funeral ser- were held Sunday evening at the church taking the place of the regular evening worship. The body was sent to Blaine, Pa. for burial with further services Monday morning there. The Rev. George Raker, pastor of Kinderhook church officiated. | Murphy, custodian of such boro prop- ! purchased for use at fires. | for Boro Council which up to that "ng on the present site. born in West Hempfield township, Oc- b { gess will ask that privilege at the reg- Numerous P. O. Mount J oy Boro Bought the Park (From page 1) deed for said plot somewhere. Mr. erty, searched a number of documents handed him by the late Burgess Chandler and among them he found the deed above mentioned, The writer was shown the deed yes- terday. It was recorded at Lancaster Dec. 15, 1875 just twenty years after it was written, The contents do not stipulate any specific restrictions so far as to say what shall be done with said plot. It was bought and paid for by the boro and they can do with it what they please. Built Market House Those old minutes of 1855 further state that $100 was borrowed with which to build a market house. Said market house was to be used for stor- ing fire hooks, ladders, axes, etc. to be The build- ing was also to provide a meeting place time met at the home of its members. Up until this time practically every- body in town was under the impres- sion that the boro park plot was do- nated to the town by an individual, could only be used for park purposes and could never be sold.’ Time and again attorneys were in- structed to search the title in an ef- fort to verify the above facts. No one ever threw any further light on the subject and there are now on file here | communications from boro solicitors who advised that the plot could not be sold. Given to Hall Asso. In March, 1895, before the erection of the Mount Joy Hall, the Hall As- ! sociation went before Boro Council and asked for the park upon which to erect the present hall building. At a special | meeting of council that body passed an ordinance granting the Association the privilege of erecting the hall building in the park. When this was referred to the Hall Association’s solicitor he advised against it, because there was no record of the boro’s legal ownership of said plot. The present location of the hall was then purchased from the Waltz es- tate and the building erected there. Our Present P, O. It may be of interest to our citizens to know just how the present postof- fice building was located in the park. The office was for many years, located in the small frame building between Jno. M. Booth’s store and A, H. Stumpf’s restaurant, then owned by the Bowman's. Private subscriptions were taken and the money used to erect a frame build- When com- pleted the postoffice was moved there. This was in 1884. According to the "boro minutes the individual contrib- "utors were paid in full in 1889 and the uilding became boro property. Will Ask Permission Inasmuch as the present location is ideal for the postoffice, we feel free in ! saying that a great majority of our citizens will favor retaining it there. Burgess Keener was advised by the Boro Solicitor that Council can instruct him to offer this plot to the govern- ment and in lieu of that fact the Bur- ular meeting of Council next Monday evening. Sites Offered (From page 1) about fifty, just what was desired here and that he had spent the day in town and inspected every plot offered. He also stated that in nearly all cases the prices asked were too high in comparison with the present value of real estate. Plots Considered We learned after the meeting that these plots will receive favor- able consideration. The M. K. Brubaker Estate prop- erty, fronting 96 feet on the north side of East Main street, being the plot between the United Brethren church and Patterson alley. The southeast corner of Main and . Delta streets including the property and office building of Hen- ry G. Carpenter, the business place and dwelling owned by Mr. « P. Franck Schock and also the prop- erty of Harry Nissley. The southwest corner of Main Street and Comfort alley cluding the properties of Mr. Ricksecker and all the of the Detwiler Estate as the residence of William Tyndall. The southeast Main and Barbara cupied by Mr. tion and Mr. age. This entire plot is Mr. Ed. Ream. The southwest corner of East Main and Delta streets including the properties of Mr. Roy B. Sheetz and Miss Mazie Kern were also considered but were not offered. i The last and most favorable plot | spoken of was our boro park. An interview with Burgess Keener to- day disclosed the fact that after the meeting of Boro Council next Monday night, this plot may also be offered to the Department. Inasmuch as the Postoffice De- partment never carries fire insur- ance on any of its buildings, they prefer a corner plot and then usu- ally build 40 feet from all abutting West in- Cl has. properties as far west Postmaster corner streets, Newcomer's team’s office of East] now oc-| gas sta- | and gar- | owned by property lines. Brick or stone ad- joining buildings are also quite preferable. If none of the above plots can be purchased at what the Depart- other sites will be considered, At the public meeting no tions were asked of the ment’s representative, there any discussion, all present seemingly being ‘satisfied to get a new post office building no matter where located, ques- Depart- neither was Mr. Brown, during his remarks, stated, however, that a location will be selected which is most con- venient to the business district and its people, stating that the Depart- ment was desirous of accommodat- ing the multitudes. The Proceedure Mr. Brown will compile his data and then report it to the Joint In- terdepartmental Committee at Washington, which in turn, will order the purchase of a plot if the price is agreeable, After the site has been acquired, some time will be required to pre- pare plans aad specifications for the building. We are however as- sured that there will be no unneces- sary delay in commencing actual construction work on the project inasmuch as all the inspectors to our office here in the past few vears recommended more spacious working accommodations.
