.CITY'S TITLE FOUND GOOD
Discovery Made Concerning Ground
Used for Engine House.
CONDEMNED MANY YEARS AGO
Fees and Appraised value Paid TO
sheriff at the Time, as shown by
"BIack Book, in which Many
Old Records Are Kept.

Al the time 1t was first proposed to erect
a new central fire station at the foot Of
Bryant street over Indian creek, the ques-
tion was raised as to whether the city
owned the ground south OF the creek on
which a portion OF the building would
rest. The records were searched but moth
ing could be found showing that the city
held title to the ground.
Yesterday. however, City Engineer Eft
nyre, after a search through what is
known at the city hall as The Black
Book unearthed a record Of the condem-
nation forty years ago Of the ground on
which the city is now constructing the
new fire station.
This record shows that the city con-
demned a triangular piece OF ground at
the junction of Main and Bryant streets
in 1859. The appraisers appointed to place
a value on the property fixed the amount
at $500 and the record shows that this sum
was paid over by the city to Perry Reel.
who was then sheriff. together with about
81 as sheriffs costs in the transaction.
The discovery OF this old record was
made in connection with the preparation
Of a plat showing the property belonging
to the municipality on which the city hall,
jail and patrol house are located. Recently
It was suggested to extend Vine street
through from Bryant street to North Main
street and City Engineer Etnyre was pre-
pairing a plat to show the locations and
boundary lines of the property which
would be affected If this suggestion was
carried out.
In making this plat Mr.. Etnyre dis
covered that the lines fail to include a
small triangular corner of ground on the
west side OF Bryant street about where
the patrol house now stands. This omis-
sion, however. Is not deemed of any i'm
portance. In view Of the fact that the city
quire title by that alone. The property
where the city hall, jail and patrol house
now stand was acquired by purchase in
1885 from Peter and Anna Bechtele ard
from a couple named Goulden.
When II was decided to erect the new
central fire station over Indian creek at
the foot of Bryant street and the search
having failed to bring TO light the record
of the condemnation proceedings, the city
secured quit claim deeds from all persons
whose claims might have cast a cloud
upon the city's title. This being the case
the discovery of the record Of the con-
domination yesterday by City Engineer
Etnyre is not so important now as It
might have been had the cIty's right to
build there been contested. Nevertheless
city officials express considerable ~satisfac-
ton at the finding of the much sought for
record.
