City Engineer Phillips had a confer
ence with Attorney j. Alton Davies
yesterday morning relative to the pur-
chase of Mr.. Davies property at the
corner of Main avenue and Price street,
with intention of creating public park
out of the land. Mr.. Davies said he
would consult with DR.. Allen, who owns
the adjacent ground. and that q joint
price for the two properties would be
agreed upon. There has been much
difficulty encountered in gettinsan un-
derstanding with the property owners:
Mr.. Phillips alleges that he addressed
letters to Dr. Allen and Mr.. Davies at
two different times. Both gentlemen
however, deny having received the
his property. The place would make a
pretty little park.
