Dr Allen advised that additional birds are needed in
our "lild "ester Fowl Sanctuary to add interest. T'he addition of six
pairs of assorted ducks would do much to bolster our depleted duck
population. '"e also suggests that we �.)urchase a pair of peafowl.
These birds are estimated at $ 250.

Dear George,
In reviewing the minutes of the last regular meeting
of the Stewart Park Comnsssion, you stated that I had
reported that `15,000.00 of the "lower type coupon bond,"
had been converted into "higher income bonds".
That is nct an accurate statement. The minutes
should note tha.l- I reported that we had ccnverted
$15,000.00 of "low coupon bonds' into "higher income
common stock."
I don't like to be on record as being so far off
in my estimate of the total value of the fund. My
recollection is that I was very careful to state that
ml estimates were completely off the record and I would
prefer to have the record show the Ee stimate to be in
the neighborhood of 95,000.00. Otherwise the report
seems to be in very good order.
Sincerely yours,
C. E. Treman, Jr.

Re: Stewart Park Fund Legal opinion from former
'D
Supreme Court Judge A. E, Gold, March 31 , 1954
I do not see how any legal effect can be Eiven to the
action of the Park Commission or Common Council In decidin..; with
the ap-.proval of the Council that the principal of the trust fund be
held beyono the 10 year period. The 4111 in my opinion provides
otherwise and it is the Will which Is controlling.
Granted that the Park Commission and the Council represent '
the people of the City, who may be regarded in a practical sense
as the beneficiaries of the trust, this still does not authorize
the Trustee to adopt a Position with res0ect to the trust which
is contrary to the Provisions of the �,Ali
Mr. Stewart had a,-rllz,4t to direct In the Will when the
principal of the truErf fund"Was to be used -and, in my o-oinjon,
it was and still I the du of the Trustee to carry out his
direction. The T;zstee is �Vthout legal right to change the
Will in this resptct even w h the consent of the Commission
and the Council.
There a.i.,e special- -rules of law 4pplicable to charitable
trusts of this nature which autliorj/zO the Courts to alter the
provisions of a trust when the clrb km' stances have so changed
since the establishment of the trust s "

or impossible to comply literal it' vi-Ith, it is terms . However, no
ap?lication for such a change has been made here, and I doubt

"I have been asked by many people as well as the newspapers whether
I intend to appeal Judge Staggs decision denying me the right to inter-
vene as a friend of the court in the $tewaft Trust Fund held b3t the Ithaca
Trust Company and so to make my feel*rig perfectly clear in the matter I
wish to issue the following stateme4.
One thing for sure, I have brought the Stewart Park Trust Fund to the
attention of the court which had not been done voluntarily by the Ithaca
Trust Company for over 30 years. When I began to criticize the handling of
the Stewart Trust Fund nearly 2 years ago it was only with one purpose in
mind and that is to have the Ithaca Trust Company follow out the direction
and the Will of Edwin C. Stewart in the best interest of the people of the
City of Ithaca for whom the money was left. I had no intention at any time
to embarrass the Bank except to bring the matter before the proper court for
an interpretation of Edwin C. Stewart 'Jill, particularly paragraph 18:
"EIGHTEENTH: From the balance of my estate at the death of my wife
I give unto the Ithaca Trust Company, of Ithaca, New York, IN TRUST NEVER
THELESS, all the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, to invest and
re-invest as it deems for the best interest of this Trust, thA interest to
be paid semi annually for a pPriod of ten nears, for the improvement of
Renwick Park, at Ithaca, New York And at the end of said ten years the
balance of my estate not hereinbefore specifically expanded or otherwise
trusteed. I direct to be expended for the permanent improvement of said
Renwick Park, under the direction of the Directors of the Ithaca Trust
Company, as they, in their judgment shall deem best."
That has been accomplished and the money now from the Stewart Trust
Fund is flowing much freer to Stewart Park in the best interest of all the
people which was the intent and purpose of EdvYin C. Stewart's Will. The
income to the City or the monies paid to the City for Stewart Park by the
Ithaca Trust Company over the last 14 years from 1941 to 1954 averaged
less than $2300 a year but since my bringing this matter to the attention
of the court, especially within the last 8 months the Ithaca Trust Company
has already turned over to the City approximately $15,000, and we now have
a further committment, that within the next 6 months the Ithaca Trust Company
will turn over to the City approximately $15,000 more for construction and
the remodeling of Ithaca Golf Course Club House, which means that we are mak-
ing lots of headway in quick time. Let's say I lost but the people won.
I have known Judge Norman Stagg for a great many years and have always
known him to be a very fair minded person with good legal judgment and if
his decision is that there is no need for my intervention, I respect his de-
cision and do not intend to appeal.
Tile the court made no reference to the 'mill, Trust or paragraph 18,
in his decision, apparently the funds are now going to be used as the 'Till
Intended it should be for permanent improvements in Stewart Park and its
holdings in the best interest of the whole community.
As pointed out , in the last 14 years payments to the City out of the
Stewart Trust Fund for the permanent improvement of the Park averaged less
than $2300 a year. Now within a year or 14 months the City will receive
approximately $30,000 from the Trust Fund for permanent improvement of
Stewart Park for the enjoyment of the people in this community now, not
200 years from now, so my intervention in this matter paid full dividends
and I am perfectly satisfied. "

PRESENT:
Chairman - A.H. Treman
Commissioners - C.E. Truman, Burns, Rogalsky, Johns, Leary
Superintendent of Public Works - Laverty
City Engineer - Melchen
City Forester - Baker
Clerk - Blean
MINUTES: Minutes of the last regular meeting were duly approved.
1964 IMPROVIWENTS: At the request of the Chairman, Superintendent Laverty
reviewed the work done on improvement projects at the park for 1964 which
were approved at the last meeting. He stated he was pleased with the
condition of the park at this time and invited members of the Commission
to make an inspection thereof.
DREDGING AT BATHING BRACH: Chairman Treman announced he had called this
meeting at the request of the Board of Public Works to reconsider a pro-
posed project to dredge the swimming area at the park. Superintendent
Laverty reported that an application made to the State of New York for an
underwater land grant in the matter had been refused but instead a license
had been approved for the proposed dredging with the understanding that the
spoil dredged from the area be deposited out in deep waters of the lake.
He stated that the Board wished to consult with the Commission before
accepting the license for this work.
Chairman Treman expressed his opinion that additional efforts should be made
to get the State to change its mind in regard to the proposed "Island" for
which the underwater land grant was requested. lie felt it may have been re-
fused on recommendations of the Conservation Department and recoramended that
further action be deferred until he could make further inquiries regarding the
State's refusal of the grant. Engineer Melchen reviewed the original proposal
to dredge an area of the swimming beach of approximately 300' x 400' to a
depth of about 80. He doubted how successful the project would be, especILally
without the proposed "Island" to serve as a buffer. He suggested that a test
hole about 50 x 50 be dug to see what the results will be.
By Comm. Burns: seconded by Comm. Leary
RESOLVED, that further action on this matter be deferred at this time; and that
Chairman Treman be authorized to negotiate with any State Officials concerned
with the granting of the underwater land grant in an effort to have it
approved for the City.
