was after him that Pixies Peak

Long made extensive explora-

1912 by Fremont, whose activi-
ties in the Mexican war brought
him into much prominence. At
the close OF the Mexican war,
Mexico coded her rights to this
territory to the United States,
but 1t was considered a barren

a town of one thousand inhabi-

grown into a big city with news

The disabled situation is almost cleared,
