the subject, whereupon the Vestry decided to instruct the Solicitors

Emden stating he thought he could then deal with the exchange
of land in a manner satisfactory to all parties, the letter was thereupon
referred to the Improvements Committee for consideration.
On the 23rd February, 1893, it was reported that £13,200 had

promised contribution of £6,750 to avoid further payment of
interest by the Vestry. This, however, the Council subsequently
declined to do.
On the 23rd March, 1893, it was agreed, subject to certain
conditions, to enter into an agreement with Mr. Emden for the
mutual conveyances and otherwise referred to above, and he was
requested to complete the improvement within three months from
the sealing of the agreement.

to the London County Council.
On the 2nd June, 1892, the offer of the London County Council
to advance the sum of £4,000, to be repaid within 25 years, was
accepted, and the mortgage for that amount was subsequently
completed.
