MRS. YEoMANS' MONEY
To Be Returned-She Declared Condi-

Columbia.

At meeting of the selectmen of
the town of Columbia held Saturday
evening it was voted to return to Mrs
$1,000 which she had given the town,
tenance of Yeomans' hall. which is the
town building. This action was taken
on account of the following communi-
cation received from Mrs. Yeomans on
June g..
To the Honorable Selectmen of the
Town of Columbia:
Whereas, the conditions under which
the town accepted my gift of $1,000 as
fund for the maintenance of the
town building known as Yeomans' hall
have been repeatedly ignored and VIC
lated by citizens of the town. thus
showing that the gift was not fully
appreciated 7 herewith ask you to
refund to me the fund. together with
the accumulated interest on same ac-
cording to the conditions accepted by
the town.
MARY YEOMANS.
About three years ago Mrs. Yeomans
offered the town $1,000 for the main
tenance of Yaomans' hail. the building
being a gift of Mrs. Yeomans to the
town. One of the conditions imposed
by Mrs Yeomans at the time of her
gift was that there should be no dane
ing or similar amusements in the
building. AS this condition had been
violated several times by the holding
of informal dances it was optional with
Mrs Yeomans to withdraw the fund at
any time.
