After a short pause, tho gold hunte,
| resumed his narrative. alt was just
26 days ago to-day that we struck
water, and with hearty cheers my
partners knew my theory was correct
and we were in the channel. The
water was found first at depth of 40
feet; we soon got the water out and
at 43 feet, below the mesa, struck
bedrock. Now came the excitement,
the first load of dirt taken out from
off the bedrock carried coarse gold to
the amount of two ounces. Clearing
a small part of the bed rock. We
found in the crevices, through which
water was trickling, $l10 of gold,
coarse heavy stuff, stuck in the rock,
like raisins in a pudding. We con-
GUIDED we had enough coin for pres
ent purposes and went into the Cargo
Muchacho camp to tell of our strike.
Great excitement prevailed, and it
was not long until all the available
ground was located. We have worked
Oh and off for % days since we made
our lind; at no time over four hours a
day, aud have taken out 1898 of gold
dust, which has been converted into
coin. We could, of course, have had
out by this time two or three thous
and dollars, but the claim is better
than a bank, it cannot break, and
whenever we get pushed for money, a
cnuplc of hours work will replenish
our exchequers. There is no question
as to the value and extent Of these
new placers. The gold is found
Directly in the channel and follows:
an almost straight course. The
largest amount I took out in one
working of four hours was $3.50
The dirt, as worked, has averaged
one ounce to the load, the weight OF
the latter being $50 pounds. We
have let our friends come in and
take out occasionally pan of dirt
for luck, and in that way over $500
have been given away. An offer
of $4,000 was made for the mine
and declined. We have a good
pi zee of property and We will make
a IL we can out of it. AS l left camp
the other day, B. Berdugo, struck
several nuggets in his claim, al
tn ough he is not yet within ten
feet of the bed rock. Our claim is
not the only good one, by any
m eane, but so far it is the only
piece of ground which has been
worked down to the main channel
on the bedrock. The gold we take
out brings from $40 to $40 per
ounce. | will remain in Yuma I'M
