Transcription
Mr. K nickerbocker: #3 July 1, 1936 “Provided, however, that i f at any time the water supply in said creek at the point where i t passes the west boundary lin e of said Section 26, above specified, shall be reduced in amount so that no more than 100 miner’ s inches (2^ e u .ft. per second) sh all pass said point, then the said Lessee sh all be held harmless as to any damages resulting from an in sufficien cy of water, and in such event consent is hereby given to the lessee to quit and vacate said premises and terminate this lease upon sixty days' notice in w ritin g to the lessor of h is intention so to do." We are not p ositively required to deliver this amount of water to the Ranch, but it is to our advantage to do so, in view of the fact that we receive $2,000 per year rental on the Hanch. I am hopeful that the water supply w ill continue to bu ild up in the reservoir so the overflow from the spillway and the flow from the Middle Spring w ill be su fficien t to reach the Ranch and bu rial p lo t, but we cannot depend on this condition, §&d should in my opinion make prompt arrangements to straighten and clean the creek. Yours very tru ly WAITER "R'.^BRACSM , Vice President. cc - Mr. R. L. Adamson, Mr. Leo A. McNamee
