THE COMMITTEE DECIDES TO PLACE 1T IN
FRONT OF THE CITY HALL.
The committee in charge Of the collection OF funds
for the erection of the statue OF Henry Ward Deccher
the work upon which has been nearly completed by
j. O. A. Ward. has decided to place the statue IN Cty
Hall Park instead OF the site selected some time ago
In Prospect Park. Tie matter will have TO be ap-
provcd by the Park Commissioners before 1t is finally
settled.
The date decided upon for the unveng OF the statue
is June "a Mr. Beechers birthday. The orator OF the
occasion will be President Seth Low. OF Columbia Col

Interference for the vicinity of the City Hall Court
House where she said Mr. Beecher passed through MS
Getbsemane.. but Prospect Park felt to be far
more suitable and place where the statue womb DC
visited with much more rcvcrent feelings than in the
heart Of the great city, amid the hustle of trade and
traffic. The elevated road in front of the City Hall
was regarded as dcracting greatly from the availability
OF the small park there a site for the statue.
