CLAIMING LAND, (CITE BSPANISH
GRANT.
Records extending back to the time
when Louisiana was a province of
Spain have been tiled in the Civil
Distrlct Court by William H. Ward
in an effort to prove ownership of a
siuare of ground ecupled by the Al
giers Sawmill.
Mr. Ward filed suit against the
Orleans Levee Board after, he main
tatted, It completely grreunded his
property with a , lena4opt levee
and refused him compensation for
thiW" privilege. The Levee Board
claimed Mr. Ward had no title to the
property and that it was a public
place.
Mr. Ward maintains the property
formed part of a grant made by the
King of Spain to Don Louis Borepo
in 1770, and, after being sold several
times, came into possession for Bar
tholomew Duverje, to whom the
United States government is said to
have confirmed title in grant. The
plaintiff cited numerous transfers to
show passage of the property into
his bands.
