PUT? ARE FILED
New Lot Owners to Receive
Their Final Deeds at
Meeting Tonight.
Highway Addition, North -Sa
lem, Is now as much a part of the
city as if it were the heart of
State street. The final plat was
filed for record Tuesday, with the
street dedication 'n everything.
Fred Erlxon, the Highway Addi
tloneer, appeared before the city
council Monday night, to clear up
the last preliminary, a segrega
tion of taxes for the original own
ers so that the, taxes 'could be
paid and the last shadow of title
doubt or cloud removed, from the
record. The . council passed the
ordinance, assessing a little more
than $30 in taxes to the last of
the original owners; the matter
was settled with the tax collector,
and, the filing of the plat-was
done today. . ' . V
An urgent called meeting of
the new lot owners is to be held
at the Chamber of Commerce this
evening when all owners are to
receive-their deeds. Tbe petition
to pave Is. also to e signed up
as agreed In the lot purchases.
Mr.' Erlxon is especially anxious to
have this matter-, closed up at
once, before the first of March,
as any delay beyond, that time
will conflict with . the original
property option and make him a
great deal of unnecessary trouble.
He" says that , it will take but : a
few minutes to close it all up, and
he urges all the owners to attend.
The deeds for. the- property were
made to him, individually, and he
wants to separate the holdings
Into their ultimate parts and give
everybody a chance to help boost.
