A special meeting of the Board was called to take action upon this communication, and it was agreed to have a committee wait upon the owner of the building and inform him that if he would put the prop erty in proper order no action would be taken.

As yet there has been nothin So long as this building remains in its present condition the lives of all who have occasion to pass it in going to the post-office are in jeop ardy. The first heavy fall of snow, which will cause an additional weight to be 011 the roof, may be sufficient to press out the wall, and then, as there is always a continual stream of people passing on the sidewalk, a horrible accident will be chronicled, when, alas, it could have b?en so easily remedied. In case such an accident should happen, (and even at the present tune) the owner oí the building would be liable for damages for j permitting a known nuisance to ex-' ist, and it is a question whether the Board of Trustees would not also be liable on the same score. We have not made these state ments simply on hearsay, but have taken care to get our information from reliable sources. If the owner of the properly was a poor man, and unable to make the necessary improvements, we would be sorry to mention the matter, although it would be our duty to do so. But this case is different. The owner has had ample time to make the needed improvements, and is one of the wealthiest men doing, busi ness here, and having acquired his wealth in Batavia, it is only just and right that he put the property in shape. Even if tin building was safe, it has long- been unsightly, and the spirit of enterprise which has imbued our business men ought to have prompted the owner to tear it down and erect a new and hand some structure in its stead years ago.
