en-, we'll known and wealthy citizen
or bquaw valley, in this county, has dis
appeared under circumstances that are
30 peculiar as to arouse suspicion of foul
play and, at the same time. suspicion is
thrown upon a man whose character
and reputation stands as fair as any
mans in the country. Wooten owned
about 5000 acres of land in the foothills
of the valley. kfer selling half of this
last February to Professor Sanders and
others, he disappeared and has not been
heard from since. Investigation shows
that Wooten's land is now in the name
of Sanders, who claims he was furnish
ed the money with which to buy it by
an old friend of his named John Kan
ouse. The records show that most of
the property was decided by Wooten to
Kanouse and by Kanouse to Professor
Sanders. No one here has ever seen
Kanouse, nor has ever heard of him save
through Sanders.
Since Wooten's disappearance three
letters have been received from him,
| one from Mojave and two from Los An
geles, but they are pronounced forger-
les.
