Onuuio John A. Holgate & Son - Bowmanville, Ont. MORE ABOUT McGILL BEQUEST Conditions in Washington Do Not Warrant Sale of Building at Pres- eut - Editor's Son Makes Another Visit ta MeGili Building. Since tlie town af Bowmanville lias received upwards of $14000 in cold cash in thceîîast six mnonths. being accumulated profits f rom the McGill Building at Washington, citizens are in a more optimistic mood regarding this partial ealization af the bequest made by thc late James McGill. Tlie settlement of this question lias lag- ged on for~ nearly quarter of a cen- tury uhtil most people looked upon it as a lost cause. At tlie July meeting of town coun- cil a letter was read f rom D. L. Mc- Cartly, K.C., Toronto, solicitor for town of Bowmanville in this case. The main contents of tlie letter fol- lows: Mr. Shealey of Wasliington was in town yesterday and came in to see me to discuss the question o! the McGill property in Washington and the prospects of an immediate sale. Mr. Shealey tells me tlhat condit- ions in Washington are very much worse than tliey are in this country, and lie lolds ont no prospect of an immediate sale, but as conditions improve, lieliopes i time to get a substantial offer. In bhe meantime le tells me that it would be possible to sel the McGill house for a small amount, but it app- arently is in the colored section, and in the event of a sale lie sald we would have to be pretty lenient wtl any purcliaser and be content with a smaîl payment clown and yearly paymnents thereafter, and lie asked me to confer witli you ta f ind out wlat your views in regard to this matter were. He also tells me that tlie leating eystema n tlie McGill building is very antiquated, and f rom wliat lie is able ta leamn. if a modemn systemn were installed it would pay for itself in less than two years. and wlen that was dlone the revenue of the building would be greatly increased. which would make it a more attrative proposition ta an intending purcha- ser. McGill Building He further tells me that somne taxes were paid which he thinks, witli the co-operation of the Candian Ambass- ador in Washington, could be recov- ered. I asked him to write mne f ully in regard to this. and if lie thouglit it was at aIl practical I would take it up eitlier with Mr. Vincent Massey direct, or with his successor. to see what can be done. It amounts to about$2,500, and if we could recover that it would be more than sufficient to pay for the installation af a proper heating system. whidli as I said be- fore, would greatly facilitate a sale of the building. Wlien I flear f rom Mr. Sliealey in regard to thîs point 1 will write ynu furthem. but In the meantime fwould like You ta consider what you think sbould be donc in efeence to the in- hcatlng planý and the sale of the McGiU house.

As office buildings near the new Patent Office are newer and more up-to-datje in eveny particular, they are mudli mare expensive and will be used by the mare prospemous Patent attoneys and big arganiza- tians in this profession. Tîcre are many individuals and finins, wlio will kcep tîcir present of - fices on account of lower ovemliead, and ta keep thein in these offices the management af buildings close ta the present Patent office sucli as the Mc- Gill Building and Washington Loan & Trust Bldg., will inaugurate a bus ser-vice ta and iram the new building f ree.
