Santiago Suarez, Mexfcan consul at Brownsville, asked rangers to investigate the disappear- . ance of a Mexican citizen in the same locality last February. Only last year were {ravelers from : the Texas Coast able to traverse the ' huge ranch to the Rio Grande Valley on a state maintained highway through Kenedy County, which lies entirely within the ranch domain. The ranch originally included 1,400,000 acres. It was founded by Capt. Richard King and his associate, Capt. Mifflin Kenedy. Both had fought with the United States « Army in the war of 1848 against Mexico. After their partnership had been dissolved King’s holdings increased. When widow, Mrs. Henrietta King, died in 1925, the property was valued at more than $5,000,000. Her will directed that the ranch should be divided among numerous heirs afier her death. The process of division started last year. : The largest single block now begins 10 miles south of Corpus Christi and extends 30 miles along the Texas coastline.
