can aiford, but il Is interesting to note
that Marysvale Is in the heart of an
ala time camp, and many are the
stories that might be told Of the modest
fortunes lost and won IN and around
the town. That many such stories yet
remain to be told, there can be no
dopbt. for a vast amount of arduous
labor is stil going on developing the
rich properties here yet lying concealed.
II capital ever awakens as 1t should do,
the possibilities of the district in the
future can hardly be measured In
words
Strong indications of the presence of
valuable mineral were discovered here
in 1864. when rich float was found along
Pine creek by the pioneer prospectors;
Capt Jacob Hess. a member of the
famous Mormon Battalion, who was
returning home from California,
was among the first TO note
the indications. 1t was early in
January, 1868 that Capt. Hess and
his party arrived in Marysyale, be-
gan tracing the float and broke the
trail up Pine canyon, now known as
Bullion canyon, and discovered the
Bully Boy and Webster lodes.
These early miners were very enthus-
astic, they secured crude assays from
various prospects, and tried I'm every
way to interest eastern capital, but
other localities seemed to be preferred
and MarysvaIe was left out in the cold.
Local capital however, was at length
pressed into service; other locations
We're made and a smelter was erected,
which is still a monument to the mis-.
guided pluck and short capital of the
prospectors Of '65 and 66.

lack Of capital, on the fear of invest

failure, and Marysyale had another set

Another ATTEMPT to resusctate the
camp was made in 1878 when "A party of
