some vein stuff below Alice's level, and
as this is below where the shoot of gold was cut off
by. fissures in the early part of June last it is pro-
rinsing. We have also had some vein stuff from a
line of gold 10 feet vertically below where the third
line was so rich in March, April, May. The gene-
ral work on the vein or lode generally between the
lines of gold has yielded well. First portion of
November, up to 18th November—Operations
generally arc proceeding as usual ; nothing calling
for special notice has occurred. Produce cleaned
up, 6,051 oitavas."
