people donate ten acres of ground?

Nothing of the kind hag been said,

The supervisor from Mt. Gilead District is here. Would there
be any question about increasing the taxés, Mr; Rogers?

I do not think the ra:mers are in a very good condition &

to tax any more.

How do you think the majority of the taxpayers will feel over
the thing?

I have not seen a majority. I know the general howl ig too
high taxes.

Is the increase of taxes a question at this time, or is the
cost any greater to build a high school at Purcellville than
at Lincoln?

would have to put an acre of ground with it.

I feel the land and loss on the_building would have to be paidv
by those who wanted it moved.

we could build the same building at approximately the same
cost at either place,

Hag Purcellville made any offer of land or otherwisge?

Not so far as I know.

It seems to me that the time for them to have made a statement
