CONFEDERATE HOME AT ATLANTA.
A Handsome and Commodious Structure
Nearing Completion.
Atlanta , Ga., Sept. 9. —The new home
for indige: Confederate veterans, near
this city, which owes its inception to the
noble Henry W. Grady, will soon be
ready build for use. It lias cost about $22,000
to it, $1,000 of which went for ex?
tras in the form of a slate roof, etc. The
grounds about cover 120 acress, and the cost
was $3,00. Their value now is
$100,000, so rapidly has real estate in the
neighborhood advanced. A prominent
member of the building committee says:
“The committee will ask the legisla¬
ture to receive the Home, and place it on
the basis of other state charitable insti¬
tutions like Hie Blind and Lunatic asy¬
lums. If they decline to do it, my plan
is «S follows ; Let us keep the Home and
twenty the acres, put the other 100 acres on
market, and with the proceeds pay
hack every dollar to contributors who
live outside of Fulton county, turn over
the Home to the Fulton dounty Vete¬
rans’ association, and let them maintain
it. Then receive veterans from any
county in the state, outside of Fulton,
and charge them exactly wliat it costs
our association to maintain them.”
