Eph lot Rate 13 500 472,50 Japes 129,20 10/70 Lands which Mr. Dorr has acquired or obligated him- self to acquire for public reservations. First: A tract of land, containing approximately 160 acres, lying easterly of the present boundary of the Laf- ayette National Park and northerly of land of the Sieur de Monts Spring Company and establishing with lands already donated by Mr. Dorr from his inherited Old Farm property (with the exception of the block of land described below as B, C and D) the intended permanent boundary of the Lafayette National Park upon its northern side from Green Mountain ridge and Kebo Brook to Bear Brook at its inter- section with the Schooner Head Road. This tract is de- - scribed as follows: Commencing at the inversection of north line of land of the Sieur de Monts Spring Company with the Lafayette National Park and following the line of said Park north- erly and southwesterly to the old wood road at the foot of Green Mountain Gorge and thence northerly by said old wood road, skirting Kebo Brook, to the Kebo Valley Golf Links opposite the Building of Arts: thence by said Kebo Valley Golf Links and by Kebo Brook to the Harden Farm Road, and thence by said Harden Farm Road to its intersection with Tarn Brook and thence continuously by Tarn Brook on the eastern side of the Great Meadow to said land of said Spring Company and thence by said land of said Spring Company to the point of beginning. Excepting (A) the Catholic Cemetery Lot, which is en- closed on all sides, and excepting (B, C & D) a block of land belonging to the Estate of C. C. Burrill, the Mill- bridge Land Company, and land formerly of B. F. Young, and further excepting a parcel of land lying on the western side of Northern Kebo which Mr. Dorr has already placed in public reservation for transferance to the Park, and an adjoining tract to the west of this, conveyed by the Lynde Estata, at Mr. Dorr's suggestion, to the Trustees of Public Reservations for inclusion in the National Park. All trails leading from Bar Harbor to Green Mountain, except that along its northern ridge entering from the Eagle Lake Road, pass over this land: all trails leading from Bar Harbor to the Kebo Mountain Range, to the Green Mountain Gorge, and to Dry Mountain to the north of Otter Creek Gorge, pass over this land; and all trails leading to the Otter Creek Gorge and the Eliot Woods from Bar Har- bor, together with the northern entrance and the greater portion of the Sieur de Monts Spring Road pass over this land. Mr. Dorr has acquired all the land in the aforesaid tract, the value of which in my judgment should be placed at not less than $50,000. and has paid for the same with the exception of two undischarged mortgages, as follows: Mortgage given by Mr. Dorr to Samuel W. Bates upon a lot of about six scres adjoining Kebo Brook, dated September 16, 1916, recorded Sept. 27, 1916, in Vol. 530, Paid 116, to secure $750. in five years. I understand that no pay- ment has been made on the principal but that interest for two years has been adjusted. Mortgage given by Mr. Dorr to Luther A. Leach upon a lot of 25,000 square feet adjoining the Harden Farm Road, dated July 13, 1915, to secure $500., on or before three years, recorded Aug. 10, 1915, in Vol. 516, Page 330, of the Registry of Deeds. I understand that no payment on account of either principal or interest has been made on this mortgage. Second: A certain tract or parcel of land secured to give entrance from the northern side to an intended system of bridle paths and foot paths extending from the northern shore of the island through the National Park lands to connect with the Eagle Lake and Jordan Pond valleys and with Somes Sound by the old Southwest Valley wood-road, this being the only entrance possible on the northern side to the west of Bar Harbor for such a system. This tract enters from the road leading from Bar Harbor to Mount Desert Bridge opposite the junction of the old Cork- screw Hill county road with the road above the shore along the bluffs, and following the eastern side of Breakneck Brook and Breakneck road to the head of this valley. This lot is bounded on the north by land of the Stoughton Estate and the county roadleading from Bar Harbor to Mount Desert Bridge, on the east by the How and Pendleton lot on Paradise Hill, on the south by Breakneck Road, and on the west by Hulls Cove Brook; and contains eighty-five acres. This parcel is held by John A. Peters under a deed from William M. Roberts, which deed is deposited with the Union Trust Company of Ellsworth, together with a note signed by Mr. Dorr, for $13,500, and a letter showing that Mr. Peters holds the property in trust to secure this note. I understand this note to have been given on April 18, 1911, interest having been paid by Mr. Dorr to February 19, 1919. The taxes on this lot have also been paid by Mr. Dorr from that time up to, but not including, the present year. 25000 Thangful 1,1919 Total obligation as firm Wt matage indifilder 14250, Effs tot 13000gine and afternal corrected to 13500.

" September 22, 1919. Mr. John D. Roakefoller, Jr., 26 Broadway, New York city. Dear Mr. Rocke feller: Thank you for your carofill letter. Please don't think that I am unsnpreciative of what you have done. Your contribution is Very much greater than that of anyone else, 88 your interest in the Park is Beeper and more farseeing. I as afrnid that in my own sincere enthusiesm I conveyed an impression of greed which, 83 you know, I-am far from fooling. After consultation with Dr. Fliot, the committee has decided to postpone the presentation of the testimonial until next summer, and to keep open the subscription to the fund through the coming winter, as fresh names and contributions - some of them from un- expected sources - continue to come in, and I feel confident that the total can be materially ingreesed dur ing the intervening months. A printed letter to this effect revised by Dr. Eliot will be sent to all the present contributors. I propose, also, at his suggestion, to send 8 later letter, or letters, describing in fuller detail the purposes of the Park, and the fund, as well as to give an Illustrated lecture on the home sub- joot to the resident population next month. I shall sea to it that lands to the full value of the money already in hand is duly conveyed to the Park, and shell send you later a detailed statement of the extent and boundaries of these areas. September 22, 1919. J.D.R. Jr. 2- Hoping that you will feel that you can count upon my cooperation in every way with your ideas in regard to this matter, and that you will not hesitate to write, or send for the for consultation, whenever you wish. Very sincerely yours, P.S. Please send the cheques to Dave H. Morris, Creas. Care Bar Harbor Banking & Trust Co., Bar Harbor. Bar Harbor, Me., Aug. 4, 1919. Hon. Franklin K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior, Washington, D.C. Dear Mr. Lane: I enclose a circular which explains itself. The letter was written by Dr. Eliot, while I have formed the Committee and done the rest of it. The community feels that some appreciation and assistance should be given to Mr. Dorr, and that it should share in the work of the Park's creation - and this is finely shown by the enthusiastic response which the Committee is meeting to its appeal. We want your name, of course, for the presentation book, so won't you sign the slip which is to be inserted. Arn't you and Mrs. Lane planning to visit us ? We have been looking forward to your coming all the year, and we feel, now especially, that you ought to come to inaugurate the new Park, and present Mr. Dorr with his testimonial. with kindest regards from Edith and the children. As always, most sincerely yours, P.S. of course, Mr. port knows nothing about it. and mustn't as yet. Bar Harbor, Me., , Aug. 4, 1919. Hon. John A. Peters, House of Representatives, Washington, D.C. My dear Mr. Peters: Thank you very much for letting me use your name on the Committee which is managing the testimonial for Mr. Dorr, and for getting Senator Hale to come on. We are meeting with an enthusiastic and generous responso, and have already raised over $9000 in the few days in which we have been at work. I enclose the circular containing Dr. Eliot's letter and the names of the Committee, as well as the slip which is to be signed for insertion in the presentation book. I have, also, written to Senator Hale thanking him. Very sincerely, The Eyrie Seal Harbor, Maine August 14th, 1919 Dear Mr. Eno:- In line with our talk yesterday, I should be glad to have a statement showing all of Mr. Dorr's obligations incurred in connection with securing the Park lands or maintaining them. From what you tell me, these obligations will fall into two classes, those which are unsecured like the several loans in the banks, and those where money has been borrowed with a view to purchasing certain specific properties, on which in some cases mortgages have been given to the landlords. I should be glad to know the terms on which the mortgages were secured in these several instances, that is as to when the loans are due, what assurance Mr. Dorr has given in reference to their payment and all such facts. The sum of these two classes of loans ought to show the total amount of money which Mr. Dorr has borrowed in connection with the completing and carrying on of the Park. It may be convenient to refer to these different tracts as A, B and C. In which instance they could be roughly marked on a path map to accompany the statement. Very truly, John Mr. H. L. Eno Bar Harbor, Maine August 22, 1919. Mr. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Seal Harbor, Maine. Dear Mr. Rockefeller: Mr. Dorr, Mr. Lynam and I have been work- ing steadily ever since I received your letter, to 'furnish you the information for which you have asked. This work has necessitated an examination of deeds and other documents, which has taken us longer than I had at first anticipated. We hope, however, to have this information for you shortly and shell send it to you as soon 8.9 it is ready. I am sorry to learn that you have been ill; but Dr. Eliot kindly placed his carriage at the disposal of Governor Bartlett and myself, who drove over your beautiful reeds dea before yes- terday. Very sincerely yours, E/H Bar Harbor, Meine. Aug. 4, 1919. Hon. Frederick Hale, Senate Chamber, Washington, D.C. My dear Senator Hale: Thank you very much for allowing me to place your name on the Committee which is getting up the testimonial to Mr. Dorr. Everyone, both resident and non- resident, is most enthusiastic in their assistance, and feels that it is eminently fitting that the community should, not only. show its appreciation of Mr. Dorr's splendia achievement, but should, also, contribute its share to the Park. I am enclosing the circular containing Dr. Eliot's letter and the names of the Committee which we have been using, and a slip to be signed for insertion in the book of signatures. We are not asking anyone for specific amounts, but we are urging as great generosity as possible. Very sincerely, October 7, 1919. Charles O. Heydt, Esq 26 Broadway, New York City.

Dear Mr. Kino: May I frankly say the t I think it would not be wise, in making your report to the subscribers, to include a plan of - the londs purchased of Mr. Dorr. There are still three pieces of land included within the tract purchased still privately held, which are important to secure for the park, whose owners ought not to have that fact put so plainly before them. Again, there are always some who are ready to cry down the value of property and unable to re- cognize its possibilities in relation to any larger plan. If you give at this stage exact boundaries and figures you expose the whole situation to attack. Would it not, therefore, be better to simply state that the new purchase, taken in relation to who t has been previously secured through Mr. Dorr, establishes - a permanent boundary to the park and secures for it a splended approach.

Shall I ask Mr. Dorr upon his return to give me a list ? - Very truly yours, L/H
