I think the pdblic library is clearly within the statute pf '62 setting apart the market park for "public buildings.” The Public Library Board is acommittec of council just as the Board of Health is. I have nst rend Kr. llopkins’ opinion. but I do know what interpretation can be put on the words “public build- ings" that does not include a public lilrary. It would be too bad for the town to waste money trying to get legislation. and private citizens to go to the expense of opposing it. We should see it we cannot agree without that.
