The Opera Block building has
been decided to j. c. Page, by sher-
ifs title, and unless there is some
further litigation he comes into pos
session of the property, subject to
an under mortgage. We hope the
trouble about this building is over,
and that it will 60 into the hands of
those who will have care for it and
will put it in fit condition for those
who rent it. Mr.. Page expects to
repair, cleanse and refit the building,
so that it will be suitable for bust
ness and tenement purposes. He
will doubtless come here to reside ere
long.
