ST. Marks Church is on Corona

This was given by white residents
of New town more than a century
ago to the congregation. 1t was
valued at only $87.72, according to
deeds Recently an offer Of over
$4,000 was made to the congrega-
ton for the plot.
The value of the plot is upper
most in this controversy. The con-
gregation wants to know who is go

trustees want it and the New York
Conference would also like to have
1t added to the treasury.
