ship had grown to such si.o that tho 11
liheo club was induced to relinquish
it lease of the lower floor. Now that
tho lodge had both floors of its own
building, $12,000 was spent in musing
it comfortable. As an investment; tho
lodge bought tho corner lot on Jligh
and Court streets, Including tho build
ing now occupied by Webb & Clough
and extending on Court to tho D'Arey
building. On both of the real estate
proportion and on tho lodgo furniture
and fixtures, there is but tho $4000 un
