mond 4 Ely mine. when the following
address was delivered by Clint Patchen
On behalf of his fellow workmen:
CAPTAIN DAY: Your friends have
selected the present occasion to express
to Won their sincere regrets that the
nleasant associations which have so long
existed between you and themselves are
temnorsrily severed. We have known
Won long end well, and shall ever remem-
Der with pleasure the uniform Kindness
and courtesy of which we have been the
recipients from your hands N the DIS
charge of your duties as superintendent
of the Raymond & Ely mine, the largest
enterprise in Eastern Nevada, an enter
prise of which you may well be proud.
Under YOUR exertions the foundation of
permanent mining has been laid in
Eastern Nevada, and not in one instance
alone. And for all of which your friends.
and I can safely say the people OF
Phoebe. and in fact of Eastern Nevada,
owe To your exertions a lasting debt of
Gratitude. never to be forgotten, and
Won will have the satisfaction, when far
away from US, that there are those left
in Phoebe who fully appreciate your
worth as a progressive man and miner.
And. furthermore, in connection with
the many duties that have fallen upon
you in the capacity of superintendent,
EMPLOYING hundreds of men, handling
and discussing hundreds of thousands of
dollars, we have never heard of one man
speak disrespectfully of you. This fact
alone will be greater satisfaction to you
than the position Of Superintendent.
In behalf of the Engineering Depart
ment of the Raymond & Ely mine we
present to you this order on Messrs.
Anderson & Randolph, of San Francisco,
California, with the request that you
select for yourself some suitable token
of our regard and esteem.
And when, hereafter, sojourning in the
| more genial cline of the Golden State,
your thoughts shall wander back to the
rugged breasts Of her silver sister, Ne
vada, we beg you to remember that there
you left many strong hearts that will
ever beat in kindest remembrance of
you.
Captain Day responded in few brief
words of thanks, and assured his visitors
that though the relations existing be-
| tween them was sundered, held them one
and all in kindly memory, and hoped
they would continue to discharge their
several duties with the same skill and
fidelity they had always evinced. He
concluded by saying though about to
| tob, Lta kio tnnn raoiIanna
| here, and the many pleasant associations
connected with his sojourn in Phoebe,
! would cause him to always feel the live
Hest interest in Phoebe and the pros
perity which ultimately awaited the
camp.
