MILLIONS GIVEN AWAY
10000 Acres and Other Property for Char
lty-Deed Filed at Marshall.

MARSHALL MINN.-A somewhat uni
que and very unusual instrument was
filed for record yesterday In the office Of
the register of deeds. 1t was deed from
John NJ Burke to the Winfield Masterman
Burke relief fund and conveys to the fund
$4,000, 900 worth Of real and personal prop
erty, which Mr.. Burke donated to endow
hospital for convalescents some time
ago.
The deed recites the object of the dona-
ton and also that the fund was named
for Mr.. Burke's mother and limits and
describes the use to which the income
from this vast property can be used.
This deed Is Of much Importance to the
people Of Lyon county, inasmuch as 1t
conveys to the fund some $4,000 acres OF
land in this county. This land was pur-
chased by Mr.. Burke many years ago
from the Winona g. st. Peter Railroad
company and has since been held by him.
1t has never been improved or offered for
sale.
Many of the owners Of adjoining land
have been waiting for this opportunity tc
enlarge their farms. The fund trustees
will put the land on the market. Much
Of it will be taken at once at a high figure
