doris Are instructed TO Clear SIUe
of Buildings Within Sixty Days.
May Soon Begin Construction.
Mr.. j. A. HOrsley, who is acting
as the agent of the A. ]. Carver es-
tate in the sale of the Carver lot to
the government for the erection on
it of a federal building for a post
office in Dawson, yesterday received
a letter form B. R. Newton, assistant
secretary of the treasury at Wash
ington, notifying him that his propos-
al submitted to the government to
sell the property had been accepted.
Site Costs $4,000.
The price to be paid by the govern
ment is $4,000, and the owners are
notified that within sixty days from
the date of acceptance the vendors
shall cause to be executed and deliv-
cred to the treasury department all
abstracts, maps, plots and evidences
of title, and make same satisfactory
to the attorney general of the United
States, and that all buildings and 9TH
err improvements shall be removed, as
we'll as all debris resulting from the
removal.
Acceptance of the aforementioned
proposal ends the question of loca-
ton of the federal building, which
brought on a spirited local fight be-
tween citizens who favored the Far
mum lot on the corner of Main street
and Seventh avenue and those who
favored the Carver lot on the corner
of Stonewall and Lee streets.
It was not stated in the notice of
acceptance when the work of con-
struction would be commenced, but
as the vendors have notice to clear
the lot of all buildings and improve
ments within sixty days the Wash
ington authorities must contemplate
the erection of the building at once.
$65,OOO For Building.
The public building act authorizing
the acquisition of federal building
site in Dawson was enacted on March |
4th, 1913. Prior to that time an ap-
preparation of $4,000 for the cree
ton of the building was secured
through the efforts of the late Con-
gresham S. A. Roddenbery before !
Terrell county was transferred from
the Second to the Third district.
Congressman Crisp secured the pass
age of the act to purchase the build
ing site.
Mr.. T. S. Martin has purchased the
buildings on the site and will move
them to a lot owned by him adjoining |
the property and facing Stonewall |
street. He will remodel the building |
and use it as a residence.
