ence of two witnesses, and then got
on the witness stand and denied it..
These same two witnesses tried to
get out of this, but one of them made
affidavit to the truth of it. When NJ.

at section corners or not to put up any
mark at corners, or If l did SO to
vary the marks, what was the idea
ALSO when / called his attention
to eighty acres of state land in section
