Attention: Mr. Frank Wood
City Manager
Gentlemen:
For the purpose of providing funds to the City of Wichita Falls
and Wichita Count. with which to erect and equip an isolation ward orCountyqp
building to be used in connection with the Wichita County General Hospital,
I conveyed to the City of Wichita Falls a certain interest in producing
Oil and Gas Leases covering lands in Gregg County, Texas, the conveyance
to be effective until the city had received therefrom oil and gas of the
value of $60,000„00.
The conveyance is dated August 26, 19143, and is of record in
volume 276, Page 408, of the Deed Records of Gregg County, Texas*
The conditions governing this gift and the purpose for which the
same was made are set out in letter dated August 25, 190, from Mrs* Perkins
and myself to the council, which letter accompanied the conveyance.
By-appropriate action the City Council accepted the gift subject
to the conditions set out in said letter, all of which is fully reflected
by the minutes of the council.
The City has heretofore received, by virtue of this conveyance,
oil and gas of a value of $60,000.00, which 'sum, I am advised, has been
set aside in a separate Isolation Ward Account by the city. I am further
advised that as of February 21, 1950, there were in this account government
bonds which cost $64,511.25, and cash in the amount of $3,628.27*
Since the date of this gift, the citizens of Wichita County
have voted a bond issue to be used for the erection and equipping of an
additional hospital building as well as for the remodeling and repairing
of the present hospital,building, and the approved architect's plans show
the isolation ward to be included in the new hospital building to be erected
rather than as a separate building.
To the Manager and, City Council
April 5, 1950

I understand the Federal Government has agreed to match dollar
for dollar the funds in the Wichita County Hospital Building Fund; and if
the funds now held by the city in its special isolation ward account are
to be matched by the Federal Government, these funds will have to be
transferred to and become a part of the Wichita County Hospital Building
Fund.
In view of the conditions herein outlined, you are hereby
advised that it is agreeable with Mrs. Perkins and me for these funds
so held by you in this isolation ward account to be transferred to the
Wichita County Hospital Building Fund,
By this letter you are authorized, in so far as Mrs. Perkins
and I can authorize the same, to transfer all funds, assets and
properties now in your isolation ward account to the Wichita County
Hospital Building Fund, and your action in so doing will not in any
manner be considered as a breach of trust or violation of any duty
heretofore imposed upon you in connection with our gift as herein set out.
