event Of the death OF either beneficiary or
the trust the entire properts is to go abb

This deed was dated August IA. 1908.
This was before he obtained a divorce
from Maxine Elliott on the ground of de-
sertion. November &, 1908. he married

The property consists of real estate in
San Francisco and other cities in Cali
fornia and orange groves. At the time he

 There is. he says. lots of ground suitable for dredging or steam shovel work. plenty with splendid values for hydraufcRing, and a limited amount which is known to carry values sufficient for drift mining Some of the ground win pay to shov- el in during the summer season where 1t is shallow, but for the most part it will require machinery to get the best profits out of the mining.
