gether with dates and Other informa-
tion. @Es
While the attorneys for the town and

that the filing of these facts would
be like giving away one s case to the

the courts decree.
The attorneys for the trustees have
asked the attorneys on the other side
TO agree to stipulation as to the ex-
penditure of the income of the Thcmp.
son fund while the litigation is in prog
