128 JOURNAL OF PROCEEDINGS [Jan. 30,

Marylander can look upon with pride and satisfaction. Its
healthfulness of location is beyond a doubt, being both ele-
vated and dry, and the price for such a property, $2,9,000, is
a most reasonable one, particularly when its size, containing
about two acres, in the very centre of the city, and the large
quantity of material upon it, which can be made useful, is
taken into consideration. For the above reasons we respect-
fully recommend an appropriation of $29,000, for the pur-
chase of the property above referred to.
