An inquiry was held night before
last before the Senate Lands Commit
tee relative to the petition of Mrs.
Sarah b. Henry of Puma, to see about
securing her patent to homestead lands
that she had tried to take up in that
locality. 1t was claimed that SUBJ
Land Agent Williams had been very
rude and discourteous in his treat
ment of her and she had not been
given the proper consideration or in
deed su cient information concerning
the way to proceed to secure her pa
tent Land Commissioner Pratt stat
ed that he could not approve of tuch
conduct on the part of his subordinate.
1t is likely that Williams conduct will
