Forgotten Land Grant in Mexico
Makes Adventurer Millionaire
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.. July 31
(By Central Press) -A grant of
land made nearly 20 years ago to
James. J. Healy, of Birmingham,
by President Porfirio Dia of
Mexico, has made a multimillion
aire of Healy. After a long battle
in Mexican courts, Healy has' been
awarded $7;500,000 for oil taken
from his lands. .
Healy. a mining engineer, spent
ifour years, from 1902 to 1906, in
making a geological survey of
Mexico for Diaz. When the task
was , done, the Mexican dictator
paid him off with a grant 'of 1.
120,000 acres of land. 700,000
acres of "which is located in the
Cerrozul basin, state of Vera Cruz
This is the same basin from which
E. L. Doheny and his associates
have obtained much of their oil.
Healy, busy with engineering
work ip various countries, thought
little about his Mexican wastes
until oil was found there In 1917
He then an officer of the eighty
third division in France, and nat
urally couldn't leave the .trenches
to see about his oil fields.
When Healy finally got to the
Famous Yellowstone Geyser
Slightly Slower in Action
scene In 1919, he instituted suit.
Those suits with the court award
ing Healy. the value of the oil ex
tracted plus ' interest. Govern
ment figures kept for taxation
purposes, gave an accurate check
on the production from Healy's
lands.' By agreement, the award
was to be paid in Installments, the
first one July 1 of this year and
the 'rest 'in two similar install
ments six months and a year later.
respectively. ; The first. $2,500,-
000- has Just been deposited to
Healy's favor in a Mexican bank
and he has left to be Identified In
person, a procedure necessary to
Mexico. . .
Healy, now nearing his 60's,
was not a rich man before he won
the Mexican suit. . Neither was he
very poor. He counted his money
bv the thousands where now-he
counts it by the millions.
As a matter of fact, the money
means little to him. He has had
enough of travel and excitement,
having fought j through both the
Spanish-America a and "World wars
and all he desires now is to live in
peace.
