RIGHT-OF-WAY TO VIRGINIA ELECTRIC AND POWER COMPANY

The Chancellor reported that in August 1958, the Virginia Electric and Power Company
requested a right-of-way on the Brompton property in order to supply current to a swimming pool
sponsored by residents in the community. The swimming pool is located on the Spratt property
which joins Brompton property in the vicinity of the property deeded to the City of Fredericksburg
for the construction of an armory

The location of the right-of-way is from the vicinity of the armory constructed by the City,
running west to the sixty foot easement granted by W. C. Spratt, thence south on the west side
of the W. C. Spratt easement to an intersection with the property owned by W. C. Spratt
