to the ownership of this property, that
it is but justice to all concerned to cor

question the right of any of the Yearly
Meetings which has, from time to time,
occupied it, to the use of the property for
legitimate meeting purposes, but do ques'

to dispose Of it. as to dispossess others of
their just. long unquestioned. and estabr

complications. and forward justice is all
that is desired. A FRIEND.
