A FEW days ago We copied an item
from the Sacramento Bee in reference TO
Texas lands in which the following oc-
Cured; There are many persons in
California who own lands in Texas,
among others a son of Eli Williams who
was raised in Harris county. His father
died at Houston several years ago"
Yesterday Yves Williams--whom every
one in this section knows walked into
our office and said he was the son of Eli
Williams; that his father had died at
Houston in 1861 and had left some 5000
acres of fine land, and that for years he
had been trying to get a trace Of it. He
said the item he saw copied in the
RECORD was the first clue he had got for
many years, and as the property is
worth, according 10 his calculation,
$500, 600, he has taken immediate steps
to secure it, We hope he will be suc-
cessful
