Reserve;

And whereas, the public lands in the State of Wyoming, hereinafter
described, are in part covered with timber, and it appears that the
public good would be promoted by setting apart and reserving said lands;

Now, therefore, I, Theodore Roosevelt, President of the United States,
by virtue of the power vested in me by the aforesaid acts of Congress,
do hereby make known and proclaim that there is hereby reserved from
entry or settlement, and added to and made a part of the aforesaid
Yellowstone Forest Reserve, all those certain tracts, pieces or parcels
of land lying and being situate in the State of Wyoming and particularly
described as follows, to wit:

Sections one (1), two (2) and three (3), township forty-eight (48)
north, range one hundred and four (104) west; and all of township
forty-nine (49) north, range one hundred and four (104) west, sixth
(6th) Principal Meridian, Wyoming.

Excepting from the force and effect of this proclamation all lands which
may have been, prior to the date hereof, embraced in any legal entry or
covered by any lawful filing duly of record in the proper United States
Land Office, or upon which any valid settlement has been made pursuant
to law, and the statutory period within which to make entry or filing of
record has not expired: _Provided_, that this exception shall not
continue to apply to any particular tract of land unless the entryman,
settler or claimant continues to comply with the law under which the
entry, filing or settlement was made.

Warning is hereby expressly given to all persons not to make settlement
upon the lands reserved by this proclamation.

In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.

Done at the city of Washington, this thirteenth day of June, A.D. 1902,
and of the Independence of the United States the one hundred and
twenty-sixth.
