ing account of mans remains being
found: 1.-Two miners by the name Of
Edward Stack and John Landy had
rugged up windlass and were engaged
in cleaning out an old shaft on the Brown
claim, which has not been worked for
several years past. The shaft is about
fifty feet deep. At about 10 o'clock this
forenoon, when the men had removed
about ten feet of the loose dirt which
had accumulated in the bottom of the
shaft, they were considerably startled by
the discovery of the remains of human
being. The man must have been dead a
long time, as the bones We're tieshless
and his clothing was rotted to a consid-
cradle extent. The man had on a pair Of
plaid pants, black broadcloth coat and
black narrow-brimmed felt hat. Hi,
waist was encircled with II leather belt
His pockets were examined, but no pa
pers were found to assist in clearing W

Pacific Mill, some three years ago, sud
| denly disappeared, and was never hearC
of afterward.'
