Main 3830 WASHINGTON, D. C., SATURDAY, ARIZONAN BUYS COINS. Stone Mountain Half Dollars Sold to Star Subscriber. As evidence of the interest being taken in the coln-selling campaign of | the Stone Mountain Memorial Assocta- tion, Admiral Cary Grayson, chairman of the local committee, today made public a letter received from & sub- scriber of The Star, written from Fort Deflance, Ariz., which inclosed a money order for $5, with the request that he be sent five of the special half- dollar pieces offered for sale. The writer, J. S. Hill, a former resi- dent of Washington, made the request in his letter that his purchase be credited to the “lowest competitor” in the contest among young women of the District who are striving for one of the 13 chief prizes, which will be free trips to Atlanta, Ga. as honor guests of a brilllant State ball ar- ranged for next January tors. It was secured by Dr. Llenas during his extensive research into Co- lumbus lore and relics in the West In- dies. In the ruins of Navidad, 200 years after its founding, was found an in- ventory by Columbus’ own hand. “Anchor of the caravel” was o the faded rarchment. Relics of the early voyages of Co- lumbus rernained in the West Indies. In La Rablda, & convent on the rocky coast of Spain, many of these memen- toes of the great navigator have been collected into what is considered the greatest exhibit of Columbiana in the world. Although the Columbian exhibit of the historical society includes many facsimiles of originals now in the hands of the Royal Soclety of Spaln, or in the convent La Rabida, there are several writings at first hand. The signatures of Ferdinand and Isabella, solemnized by the ponderous seal of Spain, are recorded on parchment fragments. Cardinal Xiemenes of the late fifteenth century has glven his hand to a document contained in the collection.
