Show Bowen- C 510 Q You guess not. Then you came there and started this trading post, tow and a half years ago? A Yes sir. Q And during that time you have never crossed the river at any place except that one place there by Mexican Hat and by Goodrich? A I don't believe I have. Q Is that a ford at that place? A There is two fords there, right near the store. MR. FARNSWORTH: That is all. MR. BLACKMAR: That is all. FURTHER EXAMINATION BY THE SPECIAL MASTER: Q Just one question. Your house is on the upland here at Goodrich, is it? A Yes sir. Q There has been testimony by other witnesses that at some time in the past there were a number of people living there. Are those houses still there? A There is a few of them at Mexican Hat, but not at Goodrich. Q What is the nature of the land around there? A It is gravel, river bed gravel. Q I mean on the uplands. A That is, too. Q Is it land that might be productive if irrigated? A I rather think not; it is too full of rock and gravel, shale. SPECIAL MASTER: That is all. 2476 |
