(Anchorage Alaskan)
Morton E. Stevens attorney for
i Wm. Grant estate, has received the
decision of the U. S. Circuit Court
! of Appeals dated January 7, 1924,
wherein the Court affirms the judg
ment of the District Court. This case
was tried before Judge Clegg about
] two years ago and involves questions;
of conflict between the rights of nlac-;
B er claimants and quartz locators which
are believed to have never before a
risen in Alaska, says a special report
i to the Alaskan from Fairbanks.
I Grant located the Hillside Placer
Claim in the Kantishna precinct, j
Thereafter Quigley, without objection
from Grant, discovered a ledge within:
the boundaries of Grant’s Placer ;
r Claim and located on this ledge his
Red Top Quartz claim thereby carving
out that portion which contained the
ledge, so far known. Afterwards
Campbell and Tobin entered upon the
placer claim sunk a hole and discov
ered a ledge without the knowledge or
consent of Grant. They located the
* same as the Silver ping Lode Claim. !
j After this location Grant located over ;
!■ his placer the same ledge as the Hill
[ side Quartz Claim. The two main 1
\ questions involved were, first Did
2 Grant have a valid placer claim, sec- t
\ ond, Did the Defendants have the (
; right to prospect this placer claim, s
\ j without Grant’s consent, in order to 1
! find quartz. \
| When Grant located his placer he
; adopted as two of his corner stakes
' two of an adjoining claim. It was con
tended that the Alaska Statute must
be strictly followed which requires a
locator to place stakes of a certain
dimension at each corner.. The Court
of Appeals upholds the instruction giv
en by the District Court that in the
location of a mining claim the re
quirements of the Statute must be sub
stantially complied with. The adop
tion of the stakes of an adjoining
claim is in this decision approved.
The Appelate Court holds that when
Campbell and Tobin entered upon the
placer claim and prospected in order
to find the ledge, were trespassers,
and therefore could not initiate any
title by location. It was conceded
that Quigley had a valid location
which location reduced the size of the

placer and eliminated therefrom the

is Campbell et al vs. Archie McIn
tyre, administrator of the estate of
Wm. Grant, deceased.
