Book Description
The old Rock Island Railroad depot building donated in 1959 to the Eisenhower presidential library commission was library property, and title thereto was acquired in the name of the state. Assuming the governor conveyed the library property of the Eisenhower presidential library commission to the United States as provided by L. 1961, ch. 393, and assuming the federal government accepted such conveyance pursuant to federal statute, title to the building was thereby transferred to the federal government. The storage contract for the depot building executed in 1960 by the commission and Old Abilene Town Company, Inc. expired in 1985. Thereafter, the federal government as the presumed successor title owner had the legal right to take possession of the depot building.
