for the more expensive building. As
no bonds wero sold for oltbor a low

Rlnebart out aa an architect, and no
funds on hLnd with which to pay him
for tbo work.
It was nrgucd at ono meeting of

mado less than the $300, owing to the
fact that as the building for which bo
planned was not built nnd will not
bo, thero would bo no superintending
to be done, nnd tbst an offset was due
on that account.
The matter of what be should be

Mr. Rlnehart Is willing to accept 1180
