FROM the Committee on Real Estate
ST. PAUL. Mimi, June Is, 1891.
10 the Board of Education.
GENTLEMEN: Your Committee on
Real Estate would respectfully report
that we have investigated the claim of
Mir. Nels j. Ness, which was referred
TO this committee at the Board meeting
of June 5, and, from the testimony OF
the former chairman of this committee
and superintendent of Schools, believe
that there is no Justification for the
statements made by the petitioner-the
facts appearing to be that the building,
when vacated by this Board, was turned
over to the owner in much better con-
dition than it was in when rented for
school purposes. We therefore recom-
mend That the claim OF Mr.. Ness be re-
jected,
Pursuant to the requirements of law,
we have caused the insurance policies
covering the real estate of this Board
to he transferred to the City of st. Paul,
and we recommend that the Secretary
be instructed to transfer the same, to-
gether with the Insurance record and
the plans and specifications now in his
Office, to the City Clerk, taking his re-
ceipt therefor. and reporting consum,
nation of such transfer at the next
meeting of this Board.
