all came TO naught.
I'm 1857, he decided 10 get n
'grnbstake' and try prospecting
himself. In this was unsuccessful
being unskilled i'm that branch. He
solicited q number OF his so called
friends, but they would do nothing.
Mr. Tabor was appealed to and he
advanced money TO Stratton, which
started him TO Cripple Creek. In
company with Charles Wallace. n
prospector, they made the trip. walk
ing the entire distance, having two
pack mules TO carry their supplies.
Stratton then located a claim. but
after a little work five feet Of a
shaft abandoned i. and located what
afterwards proved TO be the great
est mine in Cripple Greek, which
has produced approximately $3O..

aud Wallace separated, Wallace GO

Stratton remaining to make his for

gift of $25, 200 from Stratton 10 Wal

many times millionaire, he met his
old-time partner Wallace, ON Sew

oh, | feel sure OF that.

They started, and without fur

old partner into the First National
