Case of the San Pedro Mine

From the University of Arizona Special Collections, is a copy of an article appearing in La Constitucion from Hermosillo, Sonora on 8 September 1899. My 2nd-great-grandfather Vicente Campuzano appeared as a witness in a case involving the sale of the San Pedro Mine. The news article appears at http://content.library.arizona.edu/cdm/compoundobject/collection/p15399coll8/id/6910/rec/34.

A rough translation of the case via Google Translate is as follows:
