ment has. been made. Mr.. Tidwell
held a one-fourth interest and the
others an equal share of the other
three-quarters.
The group consists of four claims

Gent and the Butt-In-in the very
heart of the richest part of the Rose
bud district-and joins the Brown
Palace on the east. The big vein
from which the Brown Palace is
sacking it's rich ore is traceable
across the Rabbits Foot, which
joins the west side line of the Dream

Messrs. Gunnell, Moore and Crisman.
