HELP THE FREE LIBRARY.
Executive Committee Makes State
ment and Appeal.

ITO the Citizens OF Westminster.
The undersigned has been request
ed by the Executive Committee OF the
Westminster Free Library Associa
tiOn to make q statement OF the work
of the association and an appeal for
continued support. An itemized re
port Of the receipts and expenditures
for the year will shortly be published
by the treasurer, Mr.. Ober Herr.
The Association has accumulated
900 volumes. AS many books have
been added during the year as could
be purchased after paying the rent
and light bills. 1t is remarkable
that, Notwithstanding the small size
of the library, so books per week
have been taken out during the past
year This answers the question
whether the library j. appreciated
and needed. Tit il patronized by men,
women and children, many of whom
are not in position to buy books
and would not read any books were ii
not for the opportunity here given.
The largest per centage OF books
read here, a. II the case, in all public
libraries, H. fiction. But the com
mittee having in charge the selection
Of books has endeavored to select
only those works OF fiction that pres
ent high ideals of life and conduct
and to exclude those that are sug-
gestive of evil and are demoralizing.
Even with it's very limited re-
soures the library has fulfilled good
purpose. With larger increase it
would do more good, in eultivating a
taste for reading and in bringing the
reader into touch with pure and
noble ideals.
Every citizen ought to make IN an
nual contribution to the support OF
an institution which is now admitted
to b. "a necessity in every intelligent
community If IT, has neither the
time nor the inclination to read, or if
IT, il able to buy books for himself,
he ought to take pleasure in helping
to provide books for others. It would
be a reflection upon the intelligence
and appreciation OF our citizenship
IL this institution would not be main
tanned. 1t ought not only to be
maintained, but it ought to be enlarg-
ed. This can be done only by every
one giving his assistance. Will you
give yours?

SUIT over POT OF
GOLD IS SETTLED
JUDGE BRASHEARS RENDERS VERDICT
FOR MR. CALP.
His Daughter, Mrs. Hare, Gets None
OF III.

A suit between Mrs. Rosella Hare
and her father, John L. Calp, over
the pot of gold found on Mr.. Calp's
farm on August 8, 1908, was
on trial several days in the Circuit
Court, being argued on demurrers.
The attorneys Of Mr.. Calp, Thomas
J. Mason, of Baltimore and Charles
=. Fink, Of this city, offered three
prayers, asking the Court to take the
case from the jury. Judge Brashears
granted the second prayer and rend-
cred the verdict for Mr. Calp.
While with hi grandson, Clarence
Harmon, digging up a stump on hi
farm which il On the line of Balti-
more and Carroll counties, Mr. Calp
struck glass jar with $4,000 in
gold coins. Mrs Hare, who was
picking blackberrieS nearby, assisted
in counting the gold and carrying it
to Mr. Calp's house.
The gold was said to be the prop
erty of one Joseph Hare, who owned
the farm prior to its purchase by Mr..
Calp. It was shown that shortly
before the death of Mr.. Hare, in 1891,
he had disposed of two mortgages
and had withdrawn from the Glen
Rock Bank, in Pennsylvania, sum
closely approximating $4,000 in gold
and for which his administrators had
made a fruitless search in all the
banks nearby i'm Pennsylvania and
Maryland. It was also understood
that MIR. Hare had said prior To hi
death that he had secreted the money
where no one would ever find 1T.
The administrators Of MIR. Hare in
stituted proceedings in the Orphans
Court for Baltimore County in che
fall Of 1908 against Mr.. Calp, requir-
ing him to turn over the $4,000 to
them At the same time they enter
ed suit in equity in the county court
to have receiver appointed. After
some litigation this case was settled
by Attorneys Thomas ]. Mason, rep
resenting Mr.. Calp, and Elmer J..
by the payment of $1,000 to the Hare
Mr.. Calp by the administrators.
In the spring OF 1910 Mrs. Hare,
who il in no way related to the late
Joseph Hare, brought suit in Carroll
county against her father, claiming
the entire SUM Of -money found -
hers, because she and her son had
been present and assisted in the find
ing. This case was resisted by Mr-
Calp Oh the ground that he alone
found the money, that it was Oh his
farm and that his settlement with
the Hare estate secured to him what
ever title the heirs may have had to
the find
Mrs Hare was represented by At
torneys ]. Milton Reifsnider ard Jno.

ShipIey-MaddOx.

The parental blessing, which he
fears may not be forthcoming, is all
that is wanted to complete the nap
piness of William S. Shipley, store
keeper of the Springfield State Hos
pital at Sykesville Md, who eloped
on Tuesday to Baltimore with Miss
Lillian r Maddox, one of the Hos
pitfalls nurses, and was married in the
Cardinals residence, on Charles
street, by Rev. Father O'Connor.
Samuel Shipley, father OF the
groom, is State Dairy Inspector and
he opposed the match because of the
youth or his son. But that objection
was not strenuous enough to deter
the lovers, who went to Baltimore,
secured the marriage licenseE and
were married short time later. Then
they left on their honeymoon and will
return to Sykesvtlle, where they will
make their home.
