Kidd, of this county, having learned in Balti-

had taken out special warrants covering the
entire waters of the Chesapeake Bay, up to the
mouth of the Susquehanna, he proceeded, in the
next train, to Annapolis, and upon inquiry at
the land-of1iee, finding such to be the fact, took
out in his own name special warrants, dated
"June 5th, 1867 for all the waters of North
East, Elk, Bohemia and that part of Sassafras
river lying and being in Cecil county, with their
inlets, named in the warrants as "vacant llnd, u
and calling for $4,000 acres. These he trans
ferred at once to the commissioners of Cecil cour-

the rights Of those whose properties lie upon
those waters, as well as for the protection of the
interests of all citizens who have been entitled
to and enjoyed the privileges of those waters"
