that If no bids by other parties was
made AZ low as the estimate that they.

Legitimate Kicks.

Hill City, Pennington Co., August a.
Having a few remarks we would like to
have published through your paper,
stating facts that occurred neal Hill
City, Pennington county, about some
mining property that is said to be tin,
we shall be glad to have the public
know the true owners of the ground,
and the way in which some men get
hold of locations when they think there
is anything in it and they have an idea
that something can be made through
other mems work. On June 9th, 1884,
the ground was located and staked by
Benjamin +. Marshal, John Cook, and
Edward Rogers, and named the Nevada
Tin Mines. There are five claims in
width, thus: Nevada Tin Mine, then
Nevada No. ] Tin Mine on the West,
and up to Nevada 4, all running parallel
one with the other. After Marshall &
Co. had located and staked the said To-
cations, an individual wanted them, and
does it in this way: He goes to work
and put up stakes and dates them back
to the 22nd Of May, 1884. and claiming
them to be OH the ground before Mar
shall & Co.'S stakes. Now, it seems
strange that men should be travelling
over ground, stalking it and not discover
where any new stakes had been set, but
ut this time to said party had not a stake
on the ground that would hold it, and
hence the reason Of his dating it back to
the 22nd Of May. From information
gathered from parties who know this
individual, it is one Of his old tricks and
he has claims staked in various parts OF
the Hills, and no work done on them,
holding them with the location notice,
and by such proceeding he keeps pros,
pectors that would be willing to do some
work and prove the ground, off from it.
and it is a great drawback to the dis.
trict, n 10 man likes to go on ground that
has a notice on it, and if he finds any.
thing of value involve himself il a law
suit with such men as this individual
would get him into just for what he
could make out OF it. We are working
OIL the Nevada No. 2 Tin Mine, which is
near the centre of the claims, and run.
ming an open cut across the ledge, and
by Sd doing We will be able to ascertain
If there is anything Of on the location
If there were more claims held by the
Developments in this locality instead OF
by location notice. there wonld be more
mines of value to day in The Hill City
mining district.
Yours etc.
