them. His evidence agreed with pre-
ceding witnesses for the defendant as
to this matter.
The witness described the ground
surrounding the discovery point OF the
Johnstown claim. as located from the
patent by the defendants surveyors.
Are there any disclosures of an
apex on the surface at the JohnstoWn
discovery point?' asked Mr.. Patter-
son.
There is a wide area surrounding
the discovery point that lacks all evi-
that was set up by the surveyors and
dump in the neighborhood. What is
under the dump / don't know. But
around and at the point there are no
indications of an apex or an outcrop
or a vein in any direction said the
witness.
The witness said that there is no
evidence of crossing of veins IN the
part of the ground west of the faults.
A lack of openings, Mr.. King said,
prevented him from tracing the north
connecting vein to the faults on the
upper levels, but that at all places
where contact was visible the vein is
cut off and ends at the west fault.
This statement also applies to all the
other veins west of the faults. They
are all cut off and ended by the west
fault
1.-THE open points at the fault are
limited to three or four, but the vein
at these points ends so completely that
I don't doubt it ends everywhere at
the west fault regularly and system
atically," said Mr.. King with reference
to the north connecting vein.
From your examination of the
south vein and the development at the
fault, what do you say as to it's east
ern termination?" asked Mr.. Patter-
son.
From what have seen west Of and
between the faults, l should say it is
cut off and terminated by the west
fault" said Mr.. King.
From what you have observed and
the developments made. where do you
say the eastern examinations of the
nameless and the No. s veins are?"
From what I saw, I believe their
eastern Examinations are at the west
faults
state whether these veins pass be-
yond the west fault as far as you
know
mo single observation of mine war
rants me in assuming that they ex-
tend eastward Of the faults, and many
observations I have made warrant the
assumption of the contrary
What is the contrary assumption
1.-THE contrary assumption is that
they absolutely end at the faultS.
The veins east of the faults were
next closely described by the witness.
He agreed with the preceding witnesses
| in this evidence.
| He said that the north vein east of
| the faults is crossed by a cross vein,
| which was mineraliZed subsequently to
| the north vein.
1.-THE north vein IS oxidiZed and
rusty, while the other are not, which
| indicates that the north vein was min
eralized and oxidized before the lat
| ter" said the witness
| Mr.. King stated that the veins east
| of the faults terminate clearly and
unmistakably against the east fault
and that ali of them apex south of the
south side line of the Rarus claim.
1.-THE veins east of the faults have
! double apices-apices on the surface
and sub-fault apices along the dag
onal line of the east wall of the east
| fault said Mr.. King.
What do you mean by an apex?
said Mr. Patterson.
THE apex is the highest point on any
cross section Of the vein''
State whether any of the veins east
of the faults apex in the Rarus
! ground
Not one OF them"
