Description

Color: Black; White A draft deed concerning Alcatraz Island, 1913. The item, typed on thin legal stationery, is for the conveyance of a one-fourth of one-seventh of one-half interest between two parties, but the form was not filled in. It is specualted that the document was an attempt by John H. Temple to secure the interest of a second party, possibly one of his own family. With much creasing, a tear at the left edge, and light browning, the overall condition is fair.
