MEMORIAL DAY.
petition from Bosworth and Thatcher
Posts, u. a. H., was received, asking for an
appropriation of $3.50 to assist in the obser-
vance OF Memorial Day and was ordered on
Alderman Wilson asked if this was the Gus
tomary sum and was informed that $500 was
the usual appropriation.
THE SOLDIERS MONUMENT.
Alderman Briggs presented the petition Of
J. S. Winslow & Co., and 43 other individu-
ais and firms, asking that the necessary steps
be taken in order to make Market Square a
public park. Alderman Briggs moved the
passage of an order providing for such ac-
ton on the part of the city and the motion
was seconded.
This action is deemed necessary before
granting the permission to erect the monu-
ment in the square, especially in view of the
fact, to which the petition refers, that there
is doubt as to the city's ownership of the
land.
Alderman Sawyer thought that before the
matter was acted upon the city solicitor
should be consulted and moved the substitu-
tion of an order for the appointment of a
committee of three members on the part of
this Board to whom the petition and order
should be referred and who should consult
with the city solicitor and report back to the
Board with any amendments they might de-
eide to suggest This order was adopted and
Aldermen Briggs, Wilson and Sawyer were
appointed on the committee. The petition
received at the last meeting was taken from
the table and referred to this committee.
