city last night from Milton. exhibited
a small bottle full of flour gold, pan
ned out of the dirt and crushed
gravel taken from the rock crusher
at Walla Walla i'm which the Free
water river gravel is being crushed

No one has found gold in the rock
but the specimens come from the dirt

ed that there is considerable fine
gold in the gravel bars and bottom
land on the walla walla river
This gold is very fine and has
been washed down from the noun

gold have been found in the same
quality of gravel on the townsite Of
Pendleton and at different places
along the Umatilla and Walla walla
rivers. but not in sufficient Quantity
