Survey Set Aside by Judge Hazen in County Case

Judge Hazen voided a western county survey made over four years ago by ex-surveyor B A Bailey. The suit brought by William M. Brun against county officials and survey supporters claimed the new line deviated from long‑standing government corners. Bruce, owner of a ten acre tract affected, paid a $10 special tax and sued for recovery. Hazen ruled the survey improper and ordered the costs borne by the survey proponents.
