FORFEITURE NOTICE.
Valdez, Alaska, April 23, 1913.
To H. Muir, your heirs and ad

it may concern:
You are hereby notified and

in labor and improvements upon
the “Minnie” lode mining claim.
Said claim is situated and lies in
the Valdez Recording Precinct,
Territory of Alaska, about six
miles from Shoup bay. The no
tice of location thereof is of rec
ord in Book 8 of Records, at page
370, in the office of the United
States Commissioner for the Val
dez Recording Precinct at Val
dez, Alaska, to which book and
page reference is hereby made for
a more particular description of
said claim. Said expenditure was
made for the purpose of holding
possessory right and title to said
mining claim under the provis
ions of Section twenty-three hun
dred and twenty-four of the Re
vised Statutes of the United
States and the amendments there
to, providing for the annual la
bor upon mining claims, said
amount being the sum required
to hold said mining claim during
the period ending the thirty-first
day of December, 1912.

ed pursuant to the provisions of
