REPAIR COURTHOUSE
IN MADISON COUNTY
Architect Employed tODraw
Plans for Reconstruction
and Additional Wings

Huntsville, February Especial }
An architect has been employed by the
county commissioners to take the meas
urements of the county courthouse and
draw plans for its reconstruction and
the addition of two wings. The COURT
house is one of the most historic Struc-
lures in the state, being 76 years old
and it is one of the finest specimens
of architecture of the time, but the
county has outgrown the building and
there is not enough room for the courts
and for county officers. About half
of the county commissioners want TO
build a new courthouse and the others
would spend something like $50,oo0 in
repairs and additions TO the old build
ing The question has become a live
one in local politics.
