have been completed About $40. 900
of the bonds were taken by the home
people and the remainder, sos, 900 by
the State, in which the State invests a
portion of her irreducible school fund.
There were other applications from
home people, but the applications
were made too late, the deal having
been completed with the State. One
party applied for 81. 700. The uegotia=
tons with the State were brought
about by Messrs. L. c. Gerling and
