THE ENCAMPMENT GROUNDS.
Bought By Money Subscribed by Git
izens of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of
the Entire Transaction

Editor of Messenger:
Dear Sir: In your article on encamp-
ment grounds published in Sundays
issue there is some error: as / re~collect
the conditions. the citizens committee
agreed with the state officials to give
them five thousand dollars or it's equiv
alent in land. The tract Of land was
bought from Messrs. Larkins and Bow
den, for which some twenty-five hun-
dred dollars was paid. They did not
donate any but were paid for their
ttles-bought outright. The difference
was raised in money and deposited in
the bank here subject to order of the
officials at Raleigh and it was expend-
ed by them in building mess rooms,
pavilions, fencing. etc. The Whining

The deed for the property was drawn
by the late Thomas w. Strange and it
was presented to Governor Fowle. and
my recollection is was filed in office of
Secretary of State. 1t having been dis
covered that Mr.. Strange omitted to
Include the water front and to have
some of the heirs of Larkins and Bow
den sign the paper. an amended deed
was made through Judge Russell and
this part of the property Joined as was
the. original intention.
A subsequent encampment was Or
dered there by Governor Scales when
he investigated the conditions and
agreements. and since then the proper
tv has laid idle. AS the state would
not or did not formally accept the
grounds, it was a question as to whom
they should descend. w could not tel
all who had subscribed to the purchase
and so it was thought wise to let the
ground go to the city OF Wilmington
to be used for q park for it's citizens In
case the state would not adopt hen
and improve them as a permanent
camp ground. As the city could mo-
hold land outside its limints / think ar
