The Map of DeLamar Mountain,

The NUGGET has now on hand the
promised map, showing the mining
claims upon DeLamer mountain which
may be seen by calling at this office
They are 24 by 28 inches in size, each
full claim being approximately 4115X1M
inches. At a glance any claim owner
can see the relative position of his
claim to all the others and the map is
of more value to any claim owner than
any one he could have prepared at
many times the cost of this one to him.
There will be none of them sold to the
public until we have been reimbursed
for our considerable outlay by claim
owners for whose benefit and at whose
instance they were prepared. The map
was engraved and printed by Rand,
& Co., of Chicago, from a copy
Drawn by Mr. William Plummer, M.
and @. g., and all the surveyed claims
were plated from notes from the office
Of the u. S. Surveyor General and are
correct. The balance of the data was
taken from the best obtainable sources
md in nearly every instance reliable.
Within few days we will receive
copies Of the map printed on paper 36-
X48 inches in size, which viii have
.oom enough to plat on them, on the
