Herron (Sign plainly, with full Christian name.) NOTE 1.—If applicant is alien born, he should state the fact and file evidence of citizenship in due form, either a certificate of his own naturalization in a court of competent jurisdiction, or, if claiming to be a citizen by virtue of his father’s naturalization and his own minority and residence in the United States at the date thereof, or, if a married woman claiming citizenship by virtue of her husband’s nativity or naturalization, then record evidence of the naturalization of the father, or husband, or an affidavit as to the nativity of the latter. Applicants who were at one time citizens of the United States, but who later became citizens of a foreign country, must file record evidence of their naturalization. Any female citizen of the United States invoking the benefits of the act of October 17, 1914 (38 Stat., 740), shall make oath showing the nationality of her husband, and that he is entitled to become a citizen of the United States. NOTE 2.—The officer before whom the proof is made will see that all answers are complete and responsive to the questions. NOTE 3.—The officer before whom the deposition is taken should call the attention of the witness to section 125 of the U.S. Criminal Code (over), and state to him that it is the purpose od the Government, if it be ascertained that he testifies falsely, to prosecute him to the full extent of the law. I HEREBY CERTIFY that the deponent was examined separately and apart from the other witnesses in the case; that the foregoing deposition was read to or by deponent in my presence before deponent affixed signature thereto; that I verily believe deponent to be the identical person hereinbefore described, and that said deposition was duly subscribed and sworn to before me at my office, in Roswell, Chaves Co., New Mexico within the Lincoln land district, this 6th day of April, 1920. I further certify that there is no protest filed in my office against his proof. [signature] Dan C. Savage U.S. Commissioner. (Official designation of officer.) c 6—1524
