SAYS the Tucson CITIZEN: Letters of administration have just been grant ed Mrs. Mary B. Aguirre in the estate of Epifanio Aguirre who died twenty one years ago. They were applied for in the furthering of certain claims of the deceased against the government" !" The character of the claimants, whom the senior of the Belt has known for quite quarter of a century, iustifes him In believing that the claim is justly made, otherwise it would not have been preferred. The long delay in pressing the claim is accounted for by reason of the death of Epifanio Aguirre, who was killed years ago by Indians, while on his way from Tucson to Sonora. AL though we do not know it for fact, We are morally certain the loss for which restriction is asked, occurred during his lifetime and by reason of his death the matter was not given that atten- tion which it deserved.-Silver Belt.
