1166 JOURNAL OF PROCEEDINGS [Mar, 24,
as being an ornament to the city. The price of the ground
and the cost of the building, are within the sum appro-
priated for the purpose, namely, $100,000, and there is a
small unexpended balance of about $3,000, which can be
used for partly furnishing the house, this amount will, how-
ever, be entirely inadequate to provide furniture and other
appurtenances necessary and appropriate for such a building
the building has been turned over to the State substan-
tially completed according to contract, and for the sum
named in the contract. But for the thorough equipment of
the building for immediate use, certain additions beyond
what was contemplated in the contract, are found necessary,
and some improvements, the need of which could not have
been forseen at an earlier period. For these additions and
improvements, and for necessary furniture and equipments,
we ask that the sum of seven thousand five hundred dollars
be appropriated, and while it is as it stands, one of the most
economical building ever erected under the auspices of the
State, it will, when thus completed, be also one of the most
convenient and creditable.
