of the Gospel. retired through old age and
living in modest little home on Howard
street. near Twentieth. John was a re-
spected mining superintendent of the
COmstOcs, and his brother occupied a
like position long ago in the best mines.
After all their years of honest tOiling
only the Sterrett mine in Placer County
was left. 1t is a valuable pro peTty,
though nothing more than a white ele-
plant on poor mans hands, as It aD-
sorbed money in taxes and conld yield no
return unless operated properly To do
this, however, required considerable
capital, which the Slerretts did not possess.
They were grown old and unable to work
the mine aud their limited stock of money
had petered out, so they looked about in
their perplexily for relief. The mine
should go-that was a settled fact-and
when the proposition to sell was men,
toned TO George Montgomery negotiations
began which are now coming to a climax
in the courts of Placer County.
AS told in the voluminous complaint
filed by Attorney A. c. Ellis in Auburn
courthouse recently. the story of how the
Sterretts lost all they possessed is fully
told. Rev. Samuel T. Sterrett and his two
brothers have sworn that the story is true.
They alege as follows:
For long time before August %, 1892,
they were equal owners of an undivided
four-filths interest in the Sterrett quartz
mine in Canada Hill mining district.

acres and certain valuable water rights.

At last Drayt ton noticed that he had let his way diverge widely from hers, so he arranged the purchase of a place down near Barn ardsville N.

 Drayton had all the things to make life happy, he shot and fshed, he read and smoKed, he played with the children and he wondered why his wife was not happy also. The truth was that he was wretched, and she did not conceal the state of her m1nd from him They quarreled good deal and he spent much of his time away from home, or if at home shut up in h1s study.
