Photo Description

Sign reads: "This land either belongs to R.H Sayre who has located it with Valentine Scrip or to the State of Colorado. In either case you are trespassing and can not possibly gain anything by squatting upon it. The matter will probably be settled in 30 days, at which time you can purchase lots and get a title. For particulars call on J.W. Smith"
