Sincerity.

Edito- The Washington Herald:
One Of the greatest and nO5lest quail
tiles OF which we can be possessed IS
sincerity. for one who is sincere tries
10 DO what he processes TO 10. How
necessary for our welfare that We should
be sincere In love. In friendship. and in
business. inspiring wherever We go. and
all with whom We come IN contact with'
confidence in our genuine sincerity and
fidelity OF purpose
Sincerity has for its foundation the
solidity Of the rock. IN love eanirs, Of
what vital importance IS II that we should
undeviatingly pursue the course OF hon
esty and sincerity in our attitude. leaving
no cause for distrust or misplaced con
hdence.
In looking back over our lives, Sc re-
call many who have prOfessed 10 be or
friends. But alas. how few of them can
we count among our tried and sincere
friends OF to-day. who through al the
trials and difficulties Of this life, have
stuck 10 US through thick and thin; and
Oh! Whist a blessing those few true friends
have been to Us, Sincere in all their
actions. a perpetual path Of sunshine
have they made for their friends, sJrewn
with roses, from the beginning. even
unto the end
The business stability OF a nation de-
pends, primarily. upon the sincerity q
one man IN his dealings with another.
Everywhere IS there trust and breach
OF that trust almost invariably entails
loss. lack Of confidence. and general de-
preston OF activity. for every time one
person fails 20 fulfill an obligation 70
another. il means a lowering OF the stand
ard OF business efficiency.
So much OF our happiness, success. and
general prosperity DO We find dependent
upon sincerity, that II would seem 10 be

Ocean View Involved in
Claim of Mrs. Brodhun
Site of Old Peralta House Has Been Fixed
And Deed Covers New Town

OAKLAND. July 27.-Another suit af-
fecting the title to the newly created
town of Ocean View, arising from
averred uncertainty in the old Spanish
grants to Peralta, is imminent The
vague description. which was handed TO
Deputy Auditor H. NJ. Rogers yesterday
by an attorney representing Mrs. Anna
NJ. Brodhun of Wilkesbarre Pa. has
been identified with the site of the Inew
community.
After data has been gathered she
may file suit in partition, as she claimed
the Contra Costa line through an an
cient deed.
Claimants have arisen on every hand
for the broad acres of the old Spanish
aristocrats. squatters who settled in
peaceful arroyos where the Peralta cat
tie grazed left claims for which the
children fought with knife and gun,
and their grandchildren perpetuated
the feuds in court. Benefactors of
members of the family, when fortune
had failed and the squatter and the
robber had driven off the cattle and the
mighty sweep of territory from hill
crest down to the sea had been pos
sessed by the gringo stranger. set up
claims under alleged deeds of gift The
latest was claim by Mrs. Anna NJ.
Brodhun, who lives at Wilkesbarre, Pa,
and wants to redeem unpaid taxes on
$50 acres In Ocean View.
Her description, as forwarded to At
torney willard P. Smith began at the
Peralta." That was a house built of
adobe and standing on the west side of
the San Pablo road just south of the
county line.
mystery, romance and brilliant balls,
for the charm of the dark Spanish beau
ties and the valor of the swarthy men
who adored, the house was long since
swept away in the current of events
and became only fading memory in
the minds of the oldest inhabitants. Yet
the line started at this house and ran
through the location of a cabin occu-
pied by a squatter named Espiego. Who
was Espeigo? A name lingering out of
the thousands since his day, his tiny
cabin perpetuated and his choice of a
dwelling spot destined to be historical.
Then the line ran away over the roll
ing hills, along creek beds. across smil-
ing valleys and around fertile stretches
of arabic land. finally coming back
again to its starting point, 1.-The house
of one Juan Domingo Peralta.'
Search in the auditors Office so far
has revealed only the location of the
tract about which Mrs. Brodhun is in
quiring. She said she owned fourth
interest and knew that no taxes had
been paid since 1872. The search which
is being made will probably furnish
her with the details of its subsequent
ownerships, it's sale for unpaid taxes
and its subdivisions in sites for homes.
