SUES To PROTECT
PIONEERS GRAVES
HEIR OF EARLY SETTLER ASKS
DAMAGES
Ranchlng Operations Threaten to Dis
turb Last Resting Places Of From
tlersmen Of caIIfornia-Has
Historic Associations

A legal fight for the graves of the
pioneers of Los Angeles county is be-
Ing waged in department nine OF the
superior court before Judge BordweIl
In suit for injunction and damage
brought by Walter p. Temple, descend
ent or the famous Temple family Of Los
Angeles, against L. r. Lewis, present
owner Of the Workman ranch and GEM
etery at Puente.
The suit brings to light bits of his
tory of Los Angeles in it's early DAYS.
Wllllam workman, a pioneer hunter
and trapper and father of "Uncle Billy"
workman of Los Angeles, is buried in
the Puente. He crossed the plains with
his father when he was a young man
and after engaging in the country's
fight against man and nature settled
down to ranching.
Members of the Temple family, Of the
Pico family and the body of the famous
old hunter and trapper, Bob TAFT, have
been at rest in the little Puente cem-
etery for many years and the suit
brought by the descendants is to pre-
vent the desecration of their graves.
Lewis bought the Workman ranch at
Puente in 1903. Many years before that
Uncle Billy Workman had built a
brick wall around the little graveyard.
Prior to the sale Of the ranch a chapel
had been built in the little cemetery.
Would Cultivate Graveyard
When Lewis took possession 1t is al
legged he tore dawn the wall and por-
tion of the chapel and sold the brick,
after announcing his intention of farm
Ing over the cemetery ground.
About year ago he was arrested
on a charge of desecrating a grave
yard but was released without pun
ishment. Soon after the suit to re-
strain him from tearing down any other
portion of the wall or chapel was filed
and with it a suit for $4,000 damages
| from the heirs.
Temple alleges that the Puente grave
yard was never a part of the Work
man ranch, because of the fact that
Workman dedicated 1t for cemetery
purposes after the first bodies had beer
| buried there.
Lewis alleges that the cemetery
| ground was a part of the ranch sold
to him and that he cannot see any des-
ecration in planting barley over a tract
| in which no one has been buried for
nearly a score Of years
| One of the incidental features Of the
suit is the question as to whether or
not the ground for the cemetery was
| ever consecrated by the Catholic
| church.
| A decision will probably be reached
today.

TINY RUNAWAYS
ARE RESTORED
Two Wee Lads Who Strayed from
Home Taken to Police Station,
Where Mothers Find
Them

Two tiny lost boys, one of them un-
able to speak a word of English, We're
visitors to the police station yesterday.
One of them, Arthur Stosser, years of
age had wandered away from a kim
dergarten which he attends and was
picked up by a patrolman at First and
Los Angeles street. When taken to the
station he was closely questioned, but
was unable to tell his name or where he
lived. The boy was at last turned over
to the care of the matron. About an
hour later his mother arrived at the
station and her son was restored to
her.
Anthony DRAINS, a 3-year-old Slavon-
ian, was the second guest. This little
fellow wore bright yellow curls and a
little Buster Brown suit, much soiled
from playing in the dirt.
He had wandered away from his
home at 304 Pecan street and was found
by two women playing at Fifteenth and
Main streets The women questioned
him closely, but he was unable to reply
to their queries in English, and they at
last decided to take him to the police
station.
This boy was also turned over to the
care of the matron until the arrival OF
his mother about o'clock. Mrs. DRAINS
informed the police that the little fell
low had run out of the front yard,
where he had been playing, and that
she had searched the neighborhood
thoroughly for him.
During the afternoon the two women
who had found him called at the police
station a number of times to find out
If he had been claimed. One of them
informed the police that II his mother
did not wish to claim him she would
tale the boy and bring him up.
