ANTO. JOSEPH'S GRANTS.
il DIV He Obtained Possession Of Two
thirds of the OjO Caliente Tract
and Valuable Springs
Thereon.
from Numerous Persons Who
Were Deceived by Joseph-Was
He Honest?-Judge for
Yourselves.

The New MEXICAN has been furnished
with fourteen aiiidayit5 showing how Jo-
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 afidayits 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:
