was seconded by Dr. G. J Underwood.

a few Weeks call another meeting and
want $1000 or so more. He thought

Mr Wakemaa informed him that
3600. he thought, would be all that was
needed; but they asked for $600, in
case they needed a little extra.

not and carried. ‘
The next business was "to act upon
the acceptance of the ordnance and
projectiles granted this town by the
United States Government to commem-
orate the bottle fought here during the
Revolution. and to appropriate a sum
of money sufficient to transput and
properly locate the same "
William H. Burr offered the follow.
ing resolutions.
“That this meeting accept the ord
uauce grantedius by the. government.
and that' we also tender our thanks to
the Hon. E. J. Hill. for the aid and
help he has been to us in securing it.
and that the selectmeu be instructed to
make all necessary arrangements for
mounting the some:
Edward M. Lee stated that the town
had no legal right to appropriate
money for such a purpose: that that
was the duty of the state. He cited
the case of Putnam Park. where the
government had expended thousands
of dollars. and said that it was not half
as worthy of state aid as this historical
spot at Compo. He cited another case
at Norwallt a abort time ago. where
they had started to use town money
for a Fourth of July celebration. and
found they had no legal right to do so.
It was the same way. he said. with us-
ing money for transporting and mount-
ing cannon at Comno. The only thing
to do would be to petition the coming
legislature to appropriate 3 sum of
money for the purpose. No recogni.
tion had ever been taken of this cele-
brated and historical battle ground.
if Westport went the right way about
it. the state would surely take some
interest in it.“
William H. Burr, said that the town
was not asked to spend a cent: that
the money was to be raised by indiv-
iduaili. He had over mo raised al-
ready. He read a letter from W. P
and H. C. Eno. who contributed $25.
371‘. Lee said if Mr. Burr would
amend his motion so that it would
read. “and without any expense to the
town." he would favor it.
This Mr. Burr did. and the motion
which was seconded by Rufus Walte-
man, was carried.
The next business was "if deemed
wise to appoint a committee to secure
from the state an appropriation for a
monument commemorating the battle
fought during Tryon's raid in 1777."
Edward Ryan made a motion that the
matter be left with the representaticps.
The motion was not carried
Frank M. Raymond then made a mo
tion that the old committee. together
with the selectmen. be a committee to
secure state aid for the foregoing pur-
pose.
He was informed hr the clerk that
there was up old committee; that the
sele'ctmen were the only committee re-
ferred to.
He was asked to put his motion in
