Recreation Ground for KIngstree y i- During the lifetime of the owner of the property, Hon R H Kellahan has donated a beautiful little tract of land, situate in North Kin^stree, near the residence of P H Stoll.Esq, v to the Civic league of Kingstree to "e be used as a recreation ground or park. At a meeting of the members of the league last week, plans for d improving and beautifying the site n were discussed and a committee, t with Mrs LeRoy Lee as president, I-. was appointed to have the necessary work done in this direction. There are a number of large, beautiful "? trees on the ground, with an abunh dance of underbrush. The latter will be cleared out and swings and I comfortable benches placed about for the benefit of the public, most especially the children. The work will be pushed forward as rapidly as possible. It is indeed commendable in the owner of this attractive little plot ' to donate it to the Civic league for such a noble purpose, and we hope f later,after he has seen the transfor mation and realized the genuine i pleasure the citi^ns, and especially a the little children, derive from a 1 park.be it ever so small,to hear that - his generosity has been still more magnanimous, and that the site has been deeded outright to the Civic league of Kingstree. What a bless2 ing it would be to the town, besides serving as an ever living monument to the donor. 1 ? ^ 1 Notice.
