The wind was more westerly as they
made for Ascog; but, although the light
breeze was steady and Vigilant had
been sailing fast, Britannia also bene-
hted. and lessened the gap between her
and Vigilant.
The American yacht dropped into a
calm when about mile from the 4Nscog

spectators ashore and afoat by romping
past Niglant wide on her weather. and
established good lead before she. in
turn. e0ersd a calm.
Nigilant was fairly hung up in the
doldrums, and scarcely moved for tif-
teen minutes.
Britannia. in the meanwhile. cuught
the first tender puff, and with bigger
jibtopsail passed the mark-boat at AS

before she made the mark.

A. w. bennett by Montgomery for the
nominal consideration OF s. without the
Sterretts' knowledge.
10 June, 1893, Mr.. and Mrs. Montgomery
jointly made their deed of conveyance of
an undivided one-third interest for nom
inal consideration of s., likewise without
Sterretts' knowledge, 10 Charles H Crit
tentOn.
Then the La Trinidad Mining Company
was incorporated year ago with a capital
stock of S3,O0O,OOO. divided into $4,000
shares, value 500 each. All the stock has
been subscri ped for. Montgomery. bennett
and Crittenton taking the sum of 1898. 500.
the balance going to the incOrporators.
The Serretts were accordingly left out
in the cold.
Now they claim that the MOntezuma
mine aud the MoHtezuma tunnel shares
are and were wholly valueless; that the
mine was not operated when Montgomery
made representations about il, and had
practically been abandoned. The stock
was not on the market and could not be
sold. The Beulah lots are worth only
$50. The Sterrett mine has not been
opened. and it yields no returns in conse-
Quence. The Sterretts pray that the con-
tract be rescinded on various technical
grounds and ask for damages in the sum of
100000 against Montgomery, if bennett
and Crittenton were honest purchasers in
good faith.

said, contained the terms and provisions
as included In his offer. Thew signed the
contract without reading it. relying or hl+
statements and believing it embraced all
he had proposed, DO more and no less.
A clause was inserted giving Montgom-
cry the right to purchase on his own &C
count outstanding interests in the nine
and to perfect title in case the Sterrets
failed TO do it in one year. He also re-
served the right to reseind the contract at
any time by giving notice Of thirty DAYS.
Then all money advanced, including the
$50 month to John aud Thomas Sterrett.
should be paid back.
Three lots in Beulah and the 10000
MOnteZuma shares were given the Ster-
retts, and 10 return, in August, 1892, they exc
cuted deed to part of their nine. They
procured qutclaim deed from Theodore
Winters in the following October to Mont
gomeTy of all right and title to his interest
in the mine. AS a substitute for convey
ance, the deed to one extension being lost,
T. c. Sterrett located that branch in Mrs.
Mon tgomery's name. A similar procedure
took place regarding the Sailor Canyon
placer claim, which was located in the
name of Philip Kyle, which name was
given SterretJ by Montgomery IS the name
in which he desired the claim relocated
for purposes of his own. The fifth inter
est of Mary HObson was secured in the
name of q. w. Martin in July last. when
about to sell it to the Sterretts, but Mont
gomery paid the purchase money. 1t is
claimed that Martin appeared in this
transaction solely to help Montgomery
and to prevent the Sterretts from acquir-
ing her interest," by W hich they could live
up to the contract. But this act is re-
garded as a deliberate breach Of the con-
tract.
