That the Secretary OF the Treasury
Is authorized TO permit aid post and
the Sedgwick Post Women's Relief
Corps. No. 50, to continue to occupy
the second floor OF said building until
such time as said post dissolves; such
occupancy to be without charge for
rent. water. heat, or light, which are
to be included In such free use.
And that suitable bronze tablet
commemorative OF this gift shall be
furnished and placed on the exterior
Of said building at the expense OF the
United States.
In the house an eloquent little tribute
to the old soldiers by Mann Of Illinois
was received with applause. and the
members decided to show that the vote
was unanimous.
In the senate II was pronounced a
wonderful blll-for the same reason
that had impressed the house. 1t was
passed by unanimous consent.
1t appears that the post Is well-to.
do; that the property is valuable and
that the present rental from the
ground floor Is considerable.
Once Sedgwick Post, No. 10. G. A.
r.. had about 500 members. Now Its
membership has dwindled to %. Soon
the post Will have no more need for
its hall. The last roll will be called
with none to answer Here"
