The County Department of Health was going to add oil to the effluent to kill mosquitos, and asked the Las Vegas Land and Water Company to report excess oil running onto their land.

On a report that the railroad was not fulfilling its duty to supply water to the Stewart burial plot, Bracken and others visited the site and reported on their findings. An excerpt from the original Stewart deed is referenced below.

Transcribed Notes: Handwritten note at bottom of letter: "Mrs. Mina Stewart Los Angeles 7/25 talked to M & J. No water on burial plot although reservoir overflowed. 7/25."

Bracken informing McNamee of the solution to the water delivery problem to the Stewart burial plot.

Mr. Johnson informing the city attorney that the land causing the mosquito problem was the four acre Stewart burial plot, and referred him to the Stewart heirs.

Bracken stated that water from reservoir and spring was flowing, but was being absorbed into the ground as it flowed through a bed of tuilleries. In order for water to reach the Stewart burial plot and avoid a lawsuit threatened by Stewart heirs, Bracken recommended that the company dredge the ditch from the Main Street bridge to weir at dam.

One particular part of the lands purchased from Helen Stewart was apparently for right of way and terminal facilities since it does not have any water rights associated with it.

Smith explaining to Bracken exactly how the state measures water, and that a miner's inch is a very imprecise measurement.
