which is in Sec. 40, Ell Paso county, on

ANDREW j. BAKER.
1 understood before coming to Ell
PasO, that Mrs. Barlow, the heir of l..
L. Barlow, now claims that the Hunter
mine is on Sec "A. have TO say that if
Mrs. Barlow can establish any claim to
Sec. A, and if an accurate survey will
place the Hunter mine within ! (one-
half mile of the south line of section
A, that hereby relinquish all claim
to the Hunter mine, as 1 have never
yet nor will 1 ever do any woman 8
harm, and I do not want even the susx
picion of doing so. And further, l do
not want to hypothecate the criminal
machinery OF the state, paid for by the
public, to gain a civil suit with, as
Jai1or Jones and Constable Farrell, the
over azealous sympathizers of Mrs.
Barlow, are trying to do.
