Houx, known as Lot 7 in Block 387 in the City of Cancer of Long Standing Brings Cheyenne, Wyoming, running from Houx and wife to George H. Gil- land, a business man of Cheyenne. On March 4, 1907, and within a week after the notorious Sec- tion Sixteen was leased to Hurst, a member of the family of Frank L. yage, amounting to $3,000.00 and interest, in thirty Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank bills in the denomination of $100.00 each, the serial numbers not having been broken, and gave a check for the ac- crued interest in the amount of $123.23. THE REMARKABLE CIRCUMSTANCE was in everybody’s mouth in Cheyenne and vicinity and even ex-governor Joseph M. Carey, who had been a friend of Houx, went to Mr. Houx personally and asked him to explain the matter, and Governor Carey savs “MR. HOUX’S EXPLANATION WAS NOT SATISFACTORY.” Another closely related circumstance is that on the same date the mortgage was released by Mr. Gilland, a quit-claim deed for the Cheyenne property was filed by Mr. Houx to his wife, Ida M. Houx. . Qn March 28, 1918, Mrs. Houx wrote to the county assessor of Laramie county and explained to him that the house belonged to her and not to Mr. Houx, and proceeded to inform the assessor where she| received the money to purchase the same and said that it was from! 71 N MILITARY her property in Cody sold over a year ago._ The Park county records | show that Mrs. Houx sold her property in Cody in SEPTEMBER, 1916, | more than five months prior to the cancellation of the Gilland mort- | gage.
