Weldon Residents Disap-
prove of Claim-jumping

We hefsyith publish below
part of a letter received last week
regarding some alleged claim
jumping out near Weldon.
| 1t seems as though there has
been a lot of trouble in regards to
the claim mentioned in the letter
and. that the residents out there
are decidedly opposed to anyone
jumping aaother's claim if he has
triea somewhat to live UP to the
,'ssw requirements fHddi in this we
agree with them. Because Prs
holding down a squatter's claim
leaves same for a short time to go
out and make a living should not
Indicate that the place had been
abandoned entirely and, justify
anyone jumping same. The letter
follows in part:
Weldon, Mont, April II, 1916
This is not expressing my view
of the affair but is written at the
reo::.,est of those VINO participated.
1T is in regards to a case of al
legged claim-jumping. The claim
in question is the one formerly
held by Ed. Rorvik and sold by
him to Bob Lukin. While Ed.
held it Corbin Castleman, neigh
Dor, jumped it but gave up his
claim to it when presented with a
petition signed by most OF the re-
sidents of the community.
After being bought by Lukin,
Castleman again jumped the claim
and refused to peacefully quit the
,laim. Today about IS residents
Visited CastIeman in a body and
lie again refused to give 1t up out, ;
lie soon agreed to do so when the
rowd let 60 of him.
Those present asked that | /,
end you this, not only TO show +
What some people will do to try a
0 get off with something not their
wn but, to serve as warning to
nyone who has been contem- c
lating jumping a claim that he
ad better pick different locality
IAN Weldon because the people A
ont tolerate such action, if the
1uatter has been trying to live
p to the law requirements" o.
