j Sim Francisco (UPI) For the
2ftlli time In nourly a century
(.'onKress Is scheduled to take
!up till" John C. Fremont fam
ily!) battle with the U. S.
Army over ownership of a
I piece of land near the Golden
Clate.
Fremont, known as "The
Pathfinder," was the soldier
I explorer who claimed Cali
fornia for the United Slates
ilurinK the war with Mexico.
A few years later he settled
i in San Francisco and, the l'ain
lily claims, nought a 14-acre
' trad on San Francisco Bay.
After Fremont joined the
tffl, Union forces in the Civil War,
the Army in lfiaa took over
his estate as a fortress attainst
a feared Confederate invas
ion from the Pacific. It is now
known as Ft. Mason.
Frees Slaves
During the war Fremont
earned a reputation for froo
Int; hundreds of Negro slaves
but suffered discouraging de
feats by Gen. Stonewall Jack
son. When he asked for his
land back after the war, the
Army told him it never be
longed to him. U had been re
served fur the military since
the Ullh Century, the War
Department, said, and Fre
mont was no more than a
milliliter on a military reser
vation whim ho lived there.
For 25 years Fremont
haunted Washington and the
White House striving to gel
the land back. He died in pov
erty. In 1HU1 the California leg
islature called on Congress to
"rectify un Injustice of long
standing" and puy Fremont's
widow Jessie, for the land. In
that same year she died.
The Fremonts' son, MaJ.
Francis Preston Fremont, car
ried on the fight but died In
11)25 still without possession
of the land.
Then the general's grund
son, lienton Fremont, came
hack from Cuba to fight for
the land. Last October he too
died at San Francisco General
Hospital, u few miles from the
army-held estate that now
would be worth around $5
million.
Vows To Fight
The generals greal-grand-son,
Air Force Capl. John C.
Fremont, vowed as he burled
his father thai he would carry
on the fight. He said he would
press the clulm to Ft. Mason,
an army port o embarkation,
until his family is returned
the land, or pnid for it.
Hep. John F. Shelley, D-
Calif., will introduce a bill to
turn the question of who
owns Ft, Mason over to fl
court of claims. The family's
attorney has assembled rec
ords of 100 years of fruitless
arguing with the government.
