When last wrote you did not know what
amount of damage was done by the raise in the
Trinity The water raised three feet The claims
of Blakmore & Co., and Brnkmyer & Co. were
flooded the head dams washed ont and the
wheels broken. | believe they will not go in
again this season. The dam belonging to the
claim of Cronin Musser, on Jackson's bar, was
partly washed away and some of their flume
moved, but they have repaired damages and are
at work again. They found n nugget to-day
weighing fourteen and one-half ounces. Bla-
grave Brothers & Riley, at the upper end of
China bar, were overhowe6, but as there is but
little current at that place they received but lit
tie damage, and under full headway again,
working good ground. The claims of Colopy &
Co., at the lower end of China bar, were badly
damaged. They have not made any repairs as
yet, for the river falls slowly, but am Informed

below the bridge, was completely carried away.
