I wanted my stock In the Shasta Daisy .Minin’ Company-kept lellln’ me I'd • ought to give it to her to insure her old age, although I reckon that at the time she was just rlsln’ twentyfive.

Then I get % a lawyer to draw up a paper for my wife to sign. "This paper states that for an’ in consideration of the gift to her of ail of my stock in the Shasta Daisy Minin’ Corporation, she w;Uvcs all her dower riglTts an' lominnimy prop I erty rights in everything else I got •or we got. before, then or thereafter.

She wrote me a note in about a week, sayin' she loved me but she’d have to leave me —an’ she done it. So I went back to Shasta Daisy Mine an in about a month she shows up with her lawyers an’ wants to know how come I don't semf her some - dividends. ‘l'm not aware that you I got any stock in the Shasta*.
