The Magrden lies about seven feet
beneath the surface in the midst of
a blue-laced spring sending off about
me-quart of water per minute.
The drain is probably enough to
permit of trenching fully only to take
away this water but a cheaper
method will be kept a hand pump
at work.
Mr. Scholle will allow the
National Museum to dig on condition
that the spring is replaced and
the hole filled up. He will also
take a little bonus which Mr.
Guthurst thinks need not be more
than $25.00
Lawn can be enjoyed here
at 1pm $1.00 to 1/2 p.m. day if
necessary I can board at Mrs. Scholle
However it may be best to drive
in and out to avoid Spring time.
