Have you sampled this country"
Mr.. KilgaIlon sampled IT,"
What is the strike of the ore body
which you found In this cross cut from
the 1,100?"
The dip?"
she dip is to the south. rising to the
north"
I'm the north drift on the LOO level
nat you have run east. how much ore
have your"
w carry 1t one set wide"
What is on the face of it?"
Low grade ore"
How wide Is the ore?
1t Is one set wide as far as we carry
rs the ore more than six or eight
inches wid anywhere"
1t makes no difference about it's

Thomas :. Kilgallon was next exam
lneu. He said he Is foreman of The
'olusa Parrot, and has worked there
nearly four years. He knew the un-
foreground workings of the mine, and
lhe ore bodies lying north of the Colusa
Parrot at the 1000. LOO and 200 The
apex OF these ore bodies is on the Col
usa or Parks Parrot surface, near the
Ramsdell air shaft. The witness had
taken samples OF the cross cuts. which
We're assayed by A. q. S~eibenaler. The
samples aseayed as follows: North side
OF the west drift OF the 500. 10 samples
taken every -four feet showed from a
trace I'm copper m silver 10 ~ per
cent copper and seven ounces i'm silver.
from his observation of the ground he
considered this to be In ore rather than
COUNTRY rock. From this cross cut they
broke into Never Sweat workings. At
me i,ioo he sampled in the cross cut
running from the pump station. The
samples here ran from nothing I'm con-
per and nothing in silver to small, per
centages In each. In the cross cut
which runs north from the drift west
from the LOO the two streaks are not
more than 25 feet apart. The samples
TIVE the streaks showed $40 and
MO per cent In copper. Some quartz
appeared. He sampled the cross cut
north from the LOO. showing from a
trace in copper and nothing in silver to
nve-tenths in copper I'M four-tenths i'm
silver. From his examination of the
ground between the Colusa Parrot ore
bodies TO the ore bodies reached by
these cross cuts, he considered them

material. rather thai country rock.
Mr.. Kilgallon was cross-examined
by Hon. c. S. Thomas of Denver.
What is ledger"
"Oh, quartz. ETC.
What do you call ore?"
What pays to ship"
When did you start this cross cut
from the 500 to the Never Sweat work.

Last July"
When did you finish it,"
November"
For what purpose did you drive this
cross cut?"
Find a foot wall was my orders"
Who ordered you?"
Wv. A. Clark"
Did you at that time know how far
ii was to the 800 level of the Never
Swcat?'
NO"
"Wha reason did Mr.. Clark give you
for trying to find the foot WALTZ"
Il never asked him. He selected the
place for me to run Il, and ] run it,"
Did you run IL to meet the 300 level
OF the Never Sweat, or did you strike a
cross cut?"
we ran right In under the level"
Did you take any assays at the time
this was rum
Yes. These were the ones
How many feet long is that cross
1T is 1s4 feet
What do you calculate is the aver
age width of the Colusa Parrot vein?"
About 200 feet"
AT the surface?"
"At this particular point"
From the 500 to the surface what is
average width?"
1t runs 6. s, 10 feet and 2 feet"
And at the S00?"
1T Is over 200 feet wide.'
rs there any actual working connec-
ton between Colusa Parrot workings
and the Never Sweat workings, except
you described"
That il the only place"
There is 10 actual connection from
he 900, 1000. LOO or loo with the Ana
company's workings"
NO"
How far below the 500 had you
stopped before you received orders TO run
his cross cut north"
We had stopped on the 900. 1000 and
100"
Had you carried YOU slopes east of
he shaft her?
There are non east of the shaft"
Then there is no stopped ground east
~ the shaft below the 5000"
Yes. on the 100"
None between the 800 ard 1,200?"
Mot yet"
Haven't you an ore chute with a

Yes"
In what material is your shaft sunk
rom the 500 to the 1,200?"
Vein matter"
What vein is II in?"
From the 900 Town IL is i'm the south

From the 800 up?"
II suppose IL is i'm the same vein

lis II in hanging wall or vein?"
'Well, IL leans toward the hanging

AT what point does your Colusa
PARROT vein change from two feet wide
o 200 feet wide?"
1T changes where we o the sam
''Then the change is between the 500
nd the 900 of the Never Sweat?"
Yes"
1T widens from a comparatively mar
NV vein to one nearly 200 feet wide?"
Yes"
Are there any cross-cuts running

AT the 800 and the 1l0o."
