larsins Library Grounds

i Mapleton, Mimi, October "a
The old house which has stood
for many years on Main Street near
the Public Library has been moved
away. The purchaser was Elmer Nc
Farland and he has had it moved to
Maplewood addition where it will
be fitted for occupancy. The remoy-
al OF this structure. has been in the
minds of the village officers for a
number of years as it was not q
very desirable object to be on Main
street. The land where the house
stood will now enlarge the library
grounds and the same will be seed
ed down and in all respects made
pleasing to the eye. There are still
few structures which should be
torn down and new model brick
buildings erected. H.
