ANTO. JOSEPH'S GRANTS.
How He Obtained Possession Of Two
thirds of the Ojo CalientG Tract
and Valuable Springs
Thereon.
Affidavits from Numerous Persons Who
We're Deceived by Joseph-Was
He Honest?-Judge for
Yourselves.

The New MEXICAN has been furnished
with fourteen afiidayits showing how 10
seph obtained deeds to large portions Of
the Ojo Caliente grant and to the very
valuable springs thereon The deeds
given by the persons who make oath as
given below are now recorded in the
counties of Taos and Rio Arrba and are
regular warranty deeds, although these
persons swear they did not so intend
them.
1t is plain from the a11idayits that the
persons who made the deeds were de-
ceived. How about misrepresentation,
deceit and false pretenses; were these
practiced by Joseph in these instances or
were they not? Read and judge for your
self:

pecting the Ojo Caliente grant, it was not
our intention to sell nor convey, in any
way, our rights in the grant, but that we
signed such deed with the only intention
and object of empowering the said Jo-
seph, to represent in our behalf, said
grant, ana thefepy aVoia us Dellg GiVloeu
according TO the partltloh law we un-
derstand the deed to be as an agreement,
and, on our part it was not an absolute
