I'm preparing the final report the com
mittee OF appraisers stated:
we have taken into consideration the
sales iu the immediate vicinity and also
tho property that is for sale and can be
acquired at this time in the immediate
vicinity.
1--WE have appraised the ground liber-
ally for fan value plus the replacement

We are sure the appraisement is ample
and probably ln excess of what the prop

consideration the fact only part of the
owners would sell their property at the
present. We are convinced Of the justi-
