ternoen there was fled in the Recorder
office by Jas. Lick revocation OF tn
deed of trust filed by him in July last
In the revocation he recites the trus

the effects of mental depression causet

claims upon him. That the effect of sait
instrument is to postpone the realiza
ton of the objects in view; that some o
his purposes are imperfectly provided
for, and provisions respecting them ar'
of doubtful legality; that he wishes t.
make further provision fdf those havirs
natura! claims upen lin and at ths
same time re-settle the terms of the
bounty SO as to avoid all questions oi
doubtful legality. He thinks his retul-
ming health will enable him to carry
out his objects personally. and he there
fore revokes and annuls said instrument
and all powers, etc. conferred by the
trustees, ratifying and confirming what
ever said trustees may heretofore have
done in virtue of said instrument.
