MAY ADD LAND TO COUNTY
Application Is Filed With Montgom-
cry Courts for Transferal of
S4-acre Tract

An application which aims to add an
S4-acre tract of land to the County of
Philadelphia and increase the population
of the city by 14O persons. has been filed
with the Montgomery County courts.
The territory in question is triangular
in shape and comprises a part of Chelten-
ham township. 1t is bounded on the
south by the line dividing Montgomery
and Philadelphia counties, and on the
north by the Philadelphia, Newton and
New York Railroad tracks. Crescentville
is on the western side of the tract.
The application is made under a statute
passed by the State Legislature at it's
last session. 1t provides that where
tracts of less than 200 acres. or where not
more than $50 inhabitants are involved,
the boundaries of the county may be
changed to suit the best interests of the
people, particularly where a part of the
county is accessible to the rest Of the
same county only by roads which trav-
erse a second county.
The petition will be taken before the
Court of Quarter Sessions of Montgomery
County on the 10Th of this month. Among
the larger estates concerned are those of
Josiah Hellerman, Thomas Brooks, Jr.,
and the Crescentville Land Company.
