Show struction. This notice was recorded in Book 4, Miscellaneous Records, at page 443, Records of San Diego County. In Book 5 of Miscellaneous Records, page 454, Records of San Diego County, is found an undated notice which was recorded February 20, 1883.1 According to this record, Thomas H. Blythe filed on 100,000 miners inches of water, to be taken from the Colorado River at the point of posting, which is stated to be about midway between the north and the south lines of Sec. 18, T. 5 S., R. 24 E. This point was probably intended for the present Blythe Intake and was doubtless the filing on the water to be diverted through the intake and canals built by Thomas H. Blythe. April 2, 1904, Florence Blythe Moore and A. A. Moore, Jr., her husband, filed on 300,000 miners inches of water at Black Point, as per Book 2 of Water Claims, page 59, Riverside County, California.2 No water was appropriated under this filing. In addition to the water rights covering the water being diverted at the "Blythe Intake" the company on March 18, 1911, purchased from the Palo Verde Land and Water Company, the intake site known as "Black Point", embraced in Lot 2 of Sec. 7, T. 5 S., R. 24 E., and on August 5, 1911, caused a filing to be made and recorded in Book 3 of Water Claims, page 17, Records of Riverside County, for 200,000 miner's inches of the waters of the Colorado River at this point,3 but no appropriation of water has been made under this filing. 1Calif.
