Mr. Quinn, in his talk, said that the purpose of the meeting is to form an organization which would push the project and get it before those in authority. He also said that what is needed most now is information and he proposed that a committee of six be formed to work towards this end. A. K. Hofer, engineer from Fort Wayne, who surveyed’ the Wabash river during the recent litigation, said. "The project is technically feasable. whether it is economically. must be determined by the general effects on the river downstream." He urged that the results of the survey be sent to federal engineers along with the petition. Former Judge Charles E. Sturgis, city attorney of Bluffton, pledged his own and Bluffton's cooperation. Kay Kunkle, head of the fish and game division of the state conservation department said. "Although this, being a federal project, is out of my department. 1 will do everything personally that I can." Edgar Fraiser. editor of the j Portland Sun. and one of the old- 1 est advocates of the lake, pledged I his continued efforts. Engineer Corwin of Portland gave a brief history of the lake project. He pointed out that petitions were first made in 1851 to consolidate the five lakes in the Limberlost. After the flood in 1913 it was actually surveyed by federal engineers. Jim Kinney, of east of Geneva, told of the remarkable fish which were caught in the original lakes. Jim Briggs, cashier of the Bank of Geneva, pledge his efforts. Dr. Wisong, of the state conservation department, told of the advantages of the lake to the future generations of children in the three counties. Dr. C. P. Henchman, of Geneva. Dr. Earl Higgins, Wells county commissioner. Dennis Striker. Adams county commissioner, and L. L. Dunbar of Berne and oldest living ex Adams county commissioner, each pledged himself in favor of the project. Senator Silas Hale of Geneva recalled some of the early fights for | the lake. In 1884 agitation was! started. He and his brother walk- ■ ed from the state line to Bluffton. Specifications were sent to Washington. He introduced a bill in the state assembly to appropriate $250,000. It passed the house but was voted down in the senate. W. E. Cross, Jr., of Indianapolis, I and one of the oldest members of ’ the Limberlost Memorial Associ- j ation. traced the history of the organization and said, "I believe the time is ripe for the realization of our dreams." Elmore D. Sturgis, former prosecuting attorney of Wells county mentioned the fact that good top soil was being wash ed down the river into tKe Mississippi from Adams county. Joint Representative Frank Thompson of Bluffton pledged himself in favor of it. Ralph Roop, Adams county surveyor, said that he believed the idea was good. Other Adams county officials who were present were, Glen Cowan, county auditor; Milton Werling, county clerk; Frank Martin and Phil Sauer, commissioners. The nine county commissioners signed a resolution, passed unanimously.
