Portrait of Robert Cooper Grier Robert Cooper Grier United States v. Vaca — Opinion of the Court

The chief objection urged to this grant, is the want of a survey, and that there is no sufficient designation of boundaries to sever it from the public domain. It is a sufficient answer to this-that the quantity is defined and the general locality. The claimant had been in possession before applying for the grant under a license from Vallejo; the tract was known by the designation of 'Los Putos,' or 'Lihuaytos.' It was to be located on the eastern boundary of Wolfskill, and on the margin of the river.
