<br />portion of the same land acquired by William Riley
<br />Bannister by that certain deed dated July 14, 1955, from
<br />William Riley Bannister, and others, being the heirs at
<br />law of Elizabeth Bannister, which deed is duly of record
<br />in the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court of the City
<br />of Martinsville, Virginia in Deed Book 41 at page 27,
<br />the said William Riley Bannister having died intestate,
<br />his heirs at law being his brothers and sisters, all of
<br />whom are also deceased, so that the owners of said
<br />property are the descendants of the brothers and sisters
<br />of the said William Riley Bannister, said descendants
<br />being Elizabeth B. Dillard, and others, and
<br />
<br />WHEREAS, pursuant to authority previously granted by a resolution of this
<br />Council, the agents of the City of Martinsville have previously made a
<br />bona fide but ineffectual offer to purchase said land and easements from
<br />the said Elizabeth B. Dillard, and others, and were unable to do so be-
<br />cause of inability to agree on the purchase price primarily by reason of
<br />the fact of the impossibility of ascertaining the identity of all of
<br />the said owners of said property,
<br />
<br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Martinsville,
<br />Virginia, in regular session held on October 9, 1984, that DavidB. Worthy
