The Castle Greek correspondent
of the Avalanche gives these items:
The Hon. Martin King, of Rocky
Bar, arrived at this place Friday.
He, in company with uncle Johnnie
Irwin and James Henderson, both
prominent men of this place, went
over the mountain to examine the
Meadow creek placer grounds.
They returned in few DAYS with
favorable panning prospects. The
only drawback is want of water.
The water supply is good for the
greater portion of the year, but will
run short for several months in the
latter part of the season.
