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

ment’s representative,

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.
