Brattle St. Widening.
The subject of the proposed widening of Brattle
Street by the City of Cambridge in accordance with the
order of April 23, 1889, was presented, and it was _

Voted, that the matter of widening Brattle Street and
the settlement with the City of Cambridge for damages
in consequence of the same be referred to the Commit-
tee on Lots, with full powers.

Greenhouse for Tropical Plants
The President then stated that it appeared from
a plan presented by the Superintendent that said
widening of Brattle Street, if carried out as pro-
posed would necessitate the removal of one of
the greenhouses and it was thereupon

Voted, that the Committee on Lots be authorized
to construct a new greenhouse, as a cost not
exceeding $3500, whenever, in their judgment,
it shall seem desirable so to do, and also to
make such other alterations as may be rendered
necessary in consequence.

Notice of Appropri-ation.
The President then gave notice, in accordance
with Article IX of the By-Laws, that, at the next
meeting of the Board, he should ask for an ap-
propriation to an amount exceeding $1000, to be ex-
pended for this purpose.

Dissolved,

L. G. Farmer,

Secretary.
