Dear Sir:-rhe subject matter /
herewith present cannot be said to
be one OF great moment aud deep
solemnity2-still the keynote 10 your
great mining region and vast country
is Doodle in the Ground" and for
sucn, nations have fought and murder
has been committed. But your abode,
and people have erected the .Epitsph"
before the "bonanzas" were all borne
20 the people.
Now we do not intend 20 be personal
in our remarks. Like Paul Pry, We
juit dropped 10, hope we don'tiutrude.
ii you should unfortunately find any
thing in this pen that you do not I'M
derstand then please return this and
we will come over about dinner time
ond fully explain what we are trying
20 call your attention to :-something
here known as the Cincinnati mine
said TO be located in the Tombstone
mining district and known as spur
or of-shoot OF one Napoleon Bona
parte Lazard. That man SAYS "the
great Cincinnatus" is located on the
night side CT the Contention and on
the left side of the Grand Central and
on the same mineral vein OF said
mines.
There has been much Contention"
here about the mine and il has been a
"Grand Central" also.
We hope to hear that mourniul
echo OF facts that usually emerge from
q Tombstone Epitaph, but If there is
no such mine with no such location,
then that most plaintive of airs will
be sung ,-"Johnny get your gun"
Lizards word here is like our prom
issary notes, both at a discount of 100
per cent.
1t is rumorei that Eazsrd wounded
the feelings of one or more persons
down there aid that they felt so much
hurt that they died with their boots
on Although he packed a pepper box
most OF the time here no ones feelings
were hurt. But be did try to encour-
age some poor.soul to die here, along
in the month of spring. by cutting
small tunnel 10 the mans "bow wind.
ow" at cost Of several hundred dol
lars. While Lazard is not here known,
only by reputation TO be little wild,
still there are reports that come over
the desert by way of Salton Sea, that
says that he is wild and woody in Anz-
ona. How about the unpleasantness
he was reported to have been in down
there2 Was his mans bow window
the target, the same as the cheese
knife here?
II he and his mine are all right,
then you will do Gods service in writ
ing bis Angelic Epitaph but il he and
the mine are both frauds you can
hardly express in fitting terms the
sort Of iaudabls expressions that viii
be on many a tongue. The stock
holders and few Of his creditors
want the facts, either with or without
any hair on.
Many people want his record as
well a. that of the mine. Much stock
has been sold on the reports OF Prof.
Bailey and Lazsrd of the Cincinnati
Mining Company, Lazard and wife
representing and owning all the stock
in the company, the directors having
only FIVE shares each 10 thrir credit
on the cempany's books. Lazsrd made
it close corporation
II is said this great Napoleon il
mining matters is very docile unless
worked up BY instAllments. II you
are afraid to publish the facts regard
ing the aforesaid mining property,
then and in that event you will please
turn this over to the Arizona Kicker.
Pardon us for intruding.
Hoping to hear from yon soon, !
remain Very Respectfully
AT. McGREw,
ExPresident Gin. Ming Co.
