THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13th, 1938 $2.00 a year in advance; $2.50 to U. S. A. Presents Storage Building To Village of Colborne At the meeting of Oolborne Council, held Friday evening, Oct. 7th, '1938, an offer was received from Mr. . Albert Smlith, Toronto, to deed to the Corporation the property and building on Division Street, known as the John Coye Fruit House, upon being released from payment of 193f assessed against the property. Smith has been thinking of tearing the building down and salvaging lumber, etc, but now says "not being desirous to some extent of helping to tear down a village, rather than do everything in my power to build it up, put the proposition squarely to the Council." Conditions are: "The Corporation is to have complete management of the buildings, to use, rent, lease, or sell to prospective purchaser who intend! use--not wreck--said building. The donor to receive no financial return for said transfer to Corporation of Oolborne. or any other benefit." Being a non-resident of the Village, and not on the ground to take care of renting, etc., the property, nor manage it satisfactorily, Mr. Smith presents it to the Vilage, rather than tear it down, athough having an offer of approximately $1200 for the salvage. The Council has accepted the property on terms set out, considers Mr. Smith's offer a generous act, and are glad so fine a building is saved firom the wrecker. It is one of the best apple storage buildings in the district, and it is regrettable that circumstances surrounding the trade have made it so little used for the purpose for which it was erected by the late John Coyle, who was Mr. j Smith's father-in-law.
