CHAPTER 320 AN ACT AUTHORIZING CONVEYANCE OF ABANDONED BUILD- ING AT ASHLAND SCHOOL IN BERTIE COUNTY TO ASHLAND BAPTIST CHURCH. WHEREAS, approximately twenty-five years ago an auxiliary frame building was erected on the Ashland School lot in Bertie County as a W. P. A. Project; and that building has not been used for school purposes for approximately twelve years; and WHEREAS, the building is located approximately two hundred yards from the Ashland Colored Baptist Church; and it has been repaired, main- tained and used by the members of the Church and would now be worth- less but for their efforts; and WHEREAS, this building has no value to Bertie County or its board of education except to raze it and clear the lot and dispose of the ma- terials for about the cost of taking down the building; and WHEREAS, the members of the Ashland Colored Baptist Church desire to move the building onto the Church lot and use it for Sunday School rooms: Now, therefore, The General Assembly of North Carolina do enact:
That the Board of Education of Bertie County is hereby authorized and empowered to sell and convey to the Ashland Colored Baptist Church the frame building constructed by W. P. A. for the use of the Ashland School for the nominal price and consideration of one dollar ($1.00) ; to authorize the Ashland Colored Baptist Church to move the building from the school lot onto the Church lot, either to move the strueture or to raze the building and to move and reassemble the materials; and to execute and deliver to the trustees of the Ashland Colored Baptist Church a good and sufficient deed for the building without any land and without any interest in the Ashland School lot.
