CHURCH
 BUYS: Y: REC7ORY' SITE
Rev. Mir. Finn Expects to Build Fine RectOry in Seward.

Rev. George J. Finn has purchased the lot next to the Episcopal church from Frank Ballaine and expects to erect fine rectory thereon. It is lot ? in block 12. The church stands on lot 1 and MT. Finn discovered that the church goes beyond the bounds of it's lot and encroaches on lot 2.
 Frank l.. Ballaine was seen about it and told them not to bother as they could have the whole of lot , on their own terms. So the agree ment was made to take the lot at the nominal price of $25O, one hun dred of which was paid down and the deed placed in escrow. It is hoped that can also be purchas- ed from John Ballaine and the church property will then join the school property.
 MT. Finn believes the rectory, a hotair plant for the church and some other improvements will cost about $5,OOO, and he is now starting cam paign to raise the. money outside. He is getting cuts made of the church and city and will send the pictures to all the church papels outside with personal letters to wealthy Episco- ralians. This he expects will, bring the matter. and incidentally Seward, before hundreds. of thousands of in- terested readers. He will also send maps and other facts of an adver- Using nature So that big campaign will be made and the money secured.
 MT. Finn will go on the Alameda to Valdez but will visit Seward every month or so.-Gateway.
