Where Is It?


Editor Appeal months ago a

vested in oil stock in a Reno company

haven't been able tc ascertain what
became of the money. 1t has certain
1y never been expended in sinking for
oil beyond the sinking into the peck
cts of Carson people for money. Is
there any way by which this money if
not invested. can be recovered if its
whereabouts can be ascertained?
AN OIL INVESTOR.
The Appeal sympathizes with its
correspondent and cannot inform him
where the money is at the present
time. Steps are being taken however
to compel legal accounting in the
matter and it is safe to say that un-
less the money is devoted to the pur-
poses for which it was subscribed, or
returned, that some people in Reno
will think something has bumped up
against them with rude jolt.
