Due to the above facts the Committee is of the.opinion that it has been the intent of the Lunds to re- tain the property and the Committee therefore recommends to the County Board that the request be granted.

Armbruster who should also receive some consideration. It also appears that Charles Coats owner of the remaining undivided one-third interest is also interested in the property.
