One good deed deserves another.

Dolan Dalpoas, president and chief executive officer at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital, hands over the deed for a section of property at the old hospital site on Eighth Street to Leland Semple, St. John United Church of Christ council president. The land donation is about a half-acre and includes a parking area and land that the church’s garage sits on. In 1952, the church  donated the parcel to help build the hospital that stood next to the church for more than a half-century.
