TYRRELL BOARD BUYS
HOPKINS PLACE FOR
A PUBLIC LIBRARY

Columbia-The Tyrrell County
Commissioners in a special meet
ing Friday, voted to purchase the
building and lot on Main Street,
opposite the High School, known
as the Ella Hopkins place, for a
public library and other purposes
the board may direct, for $4,750.,
an amount less that the estimate
for repairs and addition to the
present library building. The un-
expended amount appropriated for
library repairs and moneys avail
able from the ABC funds which
had not been appropriated are to be
used for this purchase.
The present library is former
county Jail much too small and in
bad repair and and stands in an
obscure position on the back of
the County Court House property,
with limited access. Complications
as to it's repair arose when the
Town of Columbia--owners of the
building-agreed to render a re-
stricted deed to the present site to
the county with the stipulation
that it be used henceforth solely
for library purposes.
