Edgerton further shows his loyalty to the community by announcing that all materials will be pun based through local dealets. He will offer this house for sale as soon as it is completed. He plans the construction of four modern bungalows on the four lots he owns in block 24. These are all to be on the bungalow plan: all have east fronts, and an abundance of shade trees: all houses will be boxed, have double floors, be built of the best materials obtainable and lie the highest class throughout. -e houses will all be within a of the new high school building Prat' Edgorion savs that the pro-po-eil paving of North Lincoln led him to male this venture.
