Keokuk, Iowa, Sept. 1s.-Thomas
Rees, newspaper publisher*of Spring

to the city of Keokuk for the estab-
a park, the Sold Rees
homestead, located high onEthe bluffs
overlooking the MississippNriver. The
gift was given in mernorY. of his
father and mother; and wasspresented
at moan at luncheon here at which
prominent business and professional
men of the city were present. The
Unity club of the city was the official
sponsor for the luncheon. Mayor
Theodore A. Craig formally accepted
the homestead for the city,.
The Rees homestead was not the
birthplace Of the children of the fam
lily but 1t was the first home that Mr..
Rees' father. and mother ever owned.
and from it's shelter the children as
their own homes.
When MI. Rees' father bought the
ground 1t was 5foccupied by a large
native forest. There was a house in
the clearing, Ahouse built of logs.
Finding that more rooms were need
ed MI. Rees and his oldestSson began
the task of adding these. On its COM
pletion theEhouse was as odd as any
house might, be which had its start
as a log cabin and its finish at the
hands Of men who had never learned
the art of woodcraft, and who had
never built a house before.
The house is located on aHhigh bluff,
from which one can look into parts
