new Twelfth Ward Park shows that the city pli1
81 1906 lot for property assessed for S238 to $40
lot, and which changed hands early last summer for
$500 a lot and aftervard for $40 lot. The city
bought the property In the fall from MIS-. Ellen Ful-
llcrton, j. 5. T. Stranahou and John O'Hricn. The
greater part was obtained from Mrs Fullerton. New
York widow. She purchased II from Frank 5 Rodke,
who is a machinist and lives at No. "a llartsi he
bought II In June from the Barclay and Bergen es-
tates for about 500 lot. The property for
meriy Bergen Island, and had been used as dump
ine ground for years. Mr.. Stranahan had owned the
seven lots he sold to the city for many years. AS
no one save Park Commissioner Brewer knew where
the park would be situated. the sudden activity In
the property IS regarded suspicious. Alderman
COitey succeeded In getting the park for that porlon
