Transforming The
Holland House

When Mayor Wilson NJ. Vinyard
announced two months ago that the
Holland property would not be sold
to the City of Milford, or be placed
upon the market he stated q fact,
and it is being corroboratei by ac-
ton during the past two weeks. To
the former owners, the old histori-
cal home and grounds was a source
of pleasure and happiness for many
years. Each old structure about the
Holland House carried for them q
regard because of former history.
Captain Vinyard realizes this fea-
ture, but desires to have the old
home changed that it will conform
to the modern period and of modern
people in its use and comforts.
TO do this q large force of work.
men was set at work removing the
old stables, and several Outbuilding
which in $50 years grew about the
main house. This has made a fine
improvement in that alone, because
of opening up of the grounds at the
south and western sides of the home
itself.
The interior will be remodeled to
meet the changed conditions. At the
eastern end there will be a large sun
parlOr and a change of that extern
sion into his private offices. Then
the kitchen at the south will be en-
tirely abandoned, and its place will
be the garage for the family use, and
pergola entrance from the drive
way at the western side of the
home. There will be few changes of
the exterior at the front or north
side of the house, but the interior
changes will conform to modern
comfort and health for a splendid
home.
1t is not possible to outline the
ideas of Mayor Vinyard, as he is not
inclined to talk out his plans be-
fore hand; but when the fine lawns
and impressive old trees are finally
to suit his plans or dreams
for his home, it will continue to be
n show place for the City of Milford.

KTDNAP CHARGES
ARE IGNORED
[COntinued from First Pagt1

CCOntinaed from First PGgs1
on the night of March Is near Ever
green Woods, miles south Of Ber-
lin.
A total of sixteen witnesses testi-
fed OH behalf of Brown before the
talismen.
The Grand jury is said to have
voted II to II against finding an in
dictment against the two defend
ants.
One important ruling which had
much bearing on the decision by the
Grand Jury was the introduction of
a Maryland law, passed in 1877 by
the Maryland State Legislature, rel
ative to kidnapping.
Under that statute, children under
12 years of age, if removed by force
to any part of any State, are classed
as having been kidnapped.
But in regards. to adults, the law
specifies that to be kidnapped, an
adult must be taken by force into
another State from that in which
the kidnapping took place.
Evidence in the Brown case fail
ed to show that the Berlin man was
transported out of the State of
Maryland, but indicated he was held
prisoner in a dungeon somewhere in
Worcester County, Md.
