scribed; that all said property has
been conveyed by c. Jensen, either
to Elda Jensen or John G. Quit
meyer, that at least one OF the
conveyances antedates the Coun'
TVS attachment by more than a
year. that in each case the County
has a long difficult line of proof,
that there may be some doubt as
to whether the cOnveyances are
in fact fraudulent, that proceeding
with the several actions against
the Jensens, Quitmeyer, II Aos,
or any of them, will necessitate
| trials in at least four different
counties of the State of Montana
the summoning of a large number
of witnesses, the hiring OF special
counsel by the County, and a large
expenditure of money, a good part
| of which cannot be recovered as
costs in the actions, and some OF
the property, at least, has prior
mortgages, there are delinquent
taxes against some and in most
instances the value of the proper
ty is not 50 great as to warrant
the necessary expenditures, and
the probability of the county's
winning the actions is doubtful.
AND WHEREAS. after full in
vestigation it appears to the Coun-
ty Commissioners that of the liens
held by the County on the proper
ty of A. F. Noble, deceased, in the
State Of Montana, the lien by GER
tifcate is not valid. the lien
against the interest of Noble in
the property in the name OF Noble
Gilbertson Company, probably can.
not be enforced, as the interest OF
A. F. Noble in that property is
more than doubtful; and that as
to the other property on which
lien is held a number OF unsatis-
fed judgments appear OF record
againstA. F. Noble, docketed prior
to the attachment by the plaintiff
in (a), and a great part of the
property is almost valueless, and
Charlotte c. Noble claims to W
the more valuable part of the pro
perty by an unrecorded transfer,
and it will be necessary for the
plaintiffs to litigate the title with
her.
AND WHEREAS, the estate of
A. +. Noble has no property in the
State of Montana, other than that
covered by the liens described in
the Judgment and that property is
not of sufficient value to warrant
proceedings:
AND WHEREAS, all the prop
erty of the estate of A. F. Noble

that the county cannot expect tC

has filed a declaration of home

part has been conveyed to one
Carl Kraft; another part is sub
ject to a claim by one George w

to a contract for deed to one Franz

AND WHEREAS, the commits

cannot find any property of the

find any personal property of that
estate in the State of North Dako-

not subject to the mortgage or

persons already mentioned.
AND WHEREAS, the commits
sioners have not any information
which would warrant In action
to set aside any of the various
mortgages or conveyances of the
North Dakota property as fraudu-
lent. and without some such action,
and the successful issue thereof,
it does not appear that anything
can be collected from that estate.
AND WHEREAS, before bring
ing any such actions it would be
necessary for the County to EN-
ploy special counsel in the State
of North Dakota and to conduct
long Investigations in that State
and in the State of Minnesota,
and if after such Investigations an
action to set aside any of the
mortgages or transfers was un-
taken, as justified by the facts
revealed, such action would have
to be brought in either the State
of North Dakota or the State of

interest of Anton Lundeen in the
