Some one remarked that there were only 21 | people in the hall and Mr. O'Brien popped up, asking for another vote. This was granted and the second ount showed 13 for the project and |10 against. | In explanation of the need for the money, Committeeman Hayes sald | that the committee did not think that it would be necessary to spend |the whole amount but wanted a sufficient sum voted so that there would be no necessity for future meetings to do so.
