A fortune estimated at $35,00O has
been hunting Tom Thomas. former
resident OF Grand Junction, for six
months. Postmaster Price received
letter recently from Joseph Neuville OF
Wellington, New Zealand, urging him
to make an effort to find Thomas. Neu-
vile said he was grubstaked by
Thomas and thus enabled TO make a
rich strike in Goldfield. Nevada. He
says he sold his claim for $4,000 and
wants to share this wealth with his
friend.
The wool growers in the vicinity OF
Montrose say they will raise $4,000
to be used for the purpose of ferret
ing out the men who murdered Peter
Swenson, the sheepman who was driv.'
ing a flock of 5000 sheep between
Grand Junction and Delta to the sum-
mer range on the Cimmaron river.
Grover Cornett, who was with the
sheep at the time Swanson was killed,
and who was tied by the attacking
party, says he was able to recognize at
least three members Of the party. He
believes 1T will be an easy matter to
locate the murderers and says that no
expense will be shared by the sheep
men to see that they have n right to
pass through the country without mo-
lestation. City Marshal Tillery, a
noted man-hunter of this section, will
likely be sent to White Water to col
lect evidence.
