A J Magnus Home to Build Aged Men's Residence
Immediate action by a new non profit, A J Magnus Home, to establish a home for aged men. Judge Robert K Stohr signed a district court order appointing the corporation as successor trustee to three men and setting a 15000 dollar surety bond. The Magnus trust, valued at about half a million, was created to fund a home modeled after Julia Elizabeth Rome for Women. The board includes Hahn, McKee, Dr Parks, and Harvey Allbee with Kenneth Duncan. The court authorized site and cost investigations and a possible purchase option under 1000 dollars, with progress reports to follow, as steps proceed to transfer trusteeship and complete the trust’s settlement. Mrs Magnus, widow of A J Magnus, died December 25 1962, and the trust proceeds will fund the project in her memory.
