Notes:
An applicant for preferred right of entry accorded bona fide settlers who fails to appeal from the rejection of his application loses thereby whatever rights he may have been entitled to, and the heir of such an applicant can have no rights based on the settlement of deceased applicant.
The law authorizing filing of a soldier's homestead declaratory statement does not warrant rejection of a filing on the ground that it was received through the mails.
