PLANS BIG PARK
FOR THE CITY
William P. Bancroft Gives
Reasons For Desiring a
Change in Law
At a meeting of West Brandywine
Orange on Thursday night a resolution
was adopted favoring the bill before the
Legislature giving the park commission
ers power to extend park land five miles
beyond the city limits, instead of two
miles, as at present. The resolution was
passed after a statement from William P.
Bancroft, president of the park commis
sion, had been read. Mr. Bancroft's com
munication was as follows;
It lias been a hobby or a concern with j
me, for more thap twenty-six years, to
endeavor to get park land for the advan
tage of the peoplVot Wilmington and Us |
vicinity. j
For many years I have been thinking !
and working as to getting the woodland
on the northeasterly side of the creek be- 1
tween the lower powder yard and the i
Augustine Mill. William M. Canby was i
very much Interested In this. I hope we I
will succeed. In the endeavor to promote '
It I have bougnt about one hundred and '
twenty acres of the Mousley and Elliott j
land; and some years since I reçu ed about j
seventeen acres that had belonged to
Isaac C. Elliott and his sister, and put It
In trust, to go to the city if It shall got
other park land In that neighborhood.
For many years I had been saying that
I wished someone would gather up the !
rough land along the Brandywine above 1
Rockland, and hold It for the future Wll- |
mlngton, a Wilmington of hundreds of I
thousands of people.
About two years since the land on the !
easterly side of the Br%tdywlne above'
Thompson's Bridge was In the market,
and 1 concluded that perhaps I ought to
do something toward what I had been
wishing others would do. I bought sev
eral tracts then offered, and have bought
others since.
My thougjit is that the hills along the
creek, some of the valleys running up i
from the creek, and a few of the finest j
view points on the hills should be owned
by the city and kept open for thé public;
and that the land further back from the
creek, being largely In one ownership,
may be laid out with roads on good grades |
and leading to the good building sites; '
which will have easy communication with ■
Wilmington, so ns to make a very at- j
tractive and desirable residence district, j
Of course 1 cannot live to see much of ;
this. It may take a hundred years to
work out. Perhaps I may be able to so ar
range things that It will work out, even I
if it shall be very far In the future.
j bave no Idea that there will be much j
pecuniary profit In the operation, certainly ,
nothing of that kind for very many years. 1
I belles'e It will never pay anybody five
percent, compound Interest on the Invest- I
ment. I doubt whether It will ever pay
three per cent.
As the law In regard to parks Is now, I
the city has no authority to hold land fop (
that purpose more than two miles outside ■
Its limits. I have had a bill Introduced in |
the Legislature entitled "An act to amend j
an Act entitled, 'an act to provide for i
public parks for the use of the citizens of ]
'Wilmington and its vicinity.' "
There are but two points In It.
First to enable the city to accept or ac- j
quire land as much as five miles out, 1
and second, to make more clear the'
method of proceedure by which the city I
accepts or acquires land.
The city has for twenty-five years had j
power to lake land In the city or within
....
* wo miles of It by condemnation. This
power hue hardly ever been used, and It
Is not likely to be used often hut It Is
^ * h « t '" p «'«»uld have the power
8 ml under the proposed act It would have ;
It as far out as five miles,
I think It will be very much to the ad- I
vantage of the „«.ghborhood If my plan. I
