Show 279 5. Fort Mohave Indian Reservation FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The Hay & Wood Military Reserve at Camp Mohave was created by an Executive Order of March 30, 1870, as follows: "The reservations at Camps Mojave, Verde, Date Creek, McDowell, Grant, Bowie and Crittenden, Arizona, as described in the accompanying plats and notes of survey-approved by the Secretary of War, are made for military purposes, and the Secretary of the Interior will cause the same to be noted in the General Land Office to be reserved as military posts."42 2. The western boundary of the Reserve was denned by the notes of survey as follows: "Thence S. 76° 17' 28" W.228.S0 chains to a post marked U. S. in mound of earth near the left bank of the Colorado River. Thence N.230 01' 32" W.362.70 chains to a post marked U. S. in a mound of earth near the left bank of the Colorado River. Thence S.88° 45' 32" E.369.00 chains to the post at the point of commencement. The said boundaries containing 9114.81 acres, more or less."43 3. When laid out, the call to the artificial monuments and the calls for specified courses and distances conflict. Adherence to the latter would require a boundary line in the foothills to the west of the Colorado River. The call to monuments would fix a line at or near the left or east bank of the River.44 42U.
