Mr.. A. Gates, OF saw mill fam. OF the
early days in the Black Hills, was on
our streets on day last week We re-
member the days when the old gentle
man was a nabob among the saw mill
fraternity aud his mills furnished the
lumber for the most part that built
Dead wood, Central and Lead, and the
quartz mills that We're erected when
the country was young. The old gen.
tleman is indeed old now, over 80. and
broken and poor, but all the same he
was man of affairs in his day, and
many will be interested to know that
he is still in the land of the living
Chronicle.
