William Pryor Letchworth. Upon the acquisition and improvement of this property, Mr. Letchworth has spent about $500,000. The gift was accepted by the State, to be in the custody of this Society upon the death of the grantor, by chapter 1 of the Laws of 1907. By the terms of the act, Mr. Letchworth retains a life tenancy with the right to continue improvements.* It is estimated that about 65,000 persons visited the Park during the past year. The generous motives which inspired this gift to the people of the State have found continued expression during the past year in the making of the following improvements at the donor's expense: The roads, woodland drives, paths and stairways have been put in order. Dead limbs and rubbish have been cleared away along * A very full description of Letchworth Park, its geological features and historical associations, will be found in pages 115 to 226 of our twelfth annual report. |
