Land Appraisers tour counties to assess forfeited school lands
The State Board of Land Appraisers began evaluating forfeited school lands north of the Texas & Pacific Railroad. They will visit Midland, Andrews, Gaines, Terry and Yoakum counties then return to nearby counties, aiming to view each tract with owners whenever possible. The board also approved a policy urging direct owner contact, with appraisals based on merit and public school fund protection. A related note reports a local minister Reverend Sidney Holmes and Miss Zuma Hartfield wed in El Paso.
