EARLY DAYS ON MESABI
RECALLED IN SUIT

The suit of Henry Gamble of
Saginaw, Mich, against the estate
of the late Wellington r. Burt of
the same city, for one-fourth of
the profits in the activities of Mr..
Burt in the ownership of iron lands
IN Minnesota, seems TO have met a
spectacular end In the circuit court
Of Saginaw county, Mich. The de-
tails would easily afford material
for a fiction story of the most alb
sorbing kind.
Mr.. Gamble was timber cruiser
and was also interested in the tim
Der business This story goes back
to the early days of the Mesabi
range. Mr.. Gamble claimed that he
was to have a one-fourth interest IN
the profits of timber lands looked
by him for Mr.. Burt, and exhibited
a typewriter contract which seemed
&c support the claim. Mr. Burt, ike
a number of Michigan men, like
Ezra Rust, and his associates, and
others, bought timber land on the
Mesabi range IN the early eighties,
and this land in many instances
proved to be valuable for iron ore.
The Burt lands proved valuable in
that respect, and Mr.. Gamble
brought suit to recover something
ike three or four million dollars.
But the circuit court of Saginaw
county, Michigan has found that
the typewriter contract does not
hold. 1t appears to have been
established that the contrac. was
written on paper that was lot
manufactured until 1902, and was
written by a typewriter not made
until 1911, whereas the contract
bore the date of May Is, 1880, for
providing Mr.. Burt with minutes on
lands. The court entered decree
finding that the signatures were
forgeries, both as TO Mr.. Burt and
witnesses Mining Re
