was Robert Stevenson, who passed

Of those stirring times and has lived

have been told, but the following Is
assumed TO be correct, being given the

himself;

sons Bay factor, overlook Cameron and
me at Bonaparte river, and showed US
piece Of quartz encrusted with free
gold. The specimen was the richest

officer $4,000 II he would conduct US 10
the locality whence Il came. Mclean,
who was killed IN the Chllllcoton Indian

offer, contentng himself with giving Us
general directions. For one reason or
another | postponed the search for the
FL Dorado until Il years had elapsed.

after few weeks OF continuous search
ing discovered what from McLean's de-
scription was the mother lode. The find
consisted Of a six-foot free milling
quartz ledge. The mineral could be
