Tom Sing Ling is quite q cultured man
and knows how to make one feel 1t
home.
All along the canyon adobe houses
were built for miners who worked in
the placer; in one of these cottages we
are domiciled as a guest of Tom ng
Ling. The first Lords day we spenl
here In his large comfortable house.
where we held services for the miners,
after which we sat down to subsDan-
tial dinner prepared by Tom Sing Ling
Monday morning we donned our heavy
boots, coarse dress and sun bonnet and
started out in quest of god; up the val
icy. over high mountains, in the burn
ing sun, through acres of sagebrush:
here and there at distance we saw
| droves of wild horses scampering away
over the mountains. At night we are
ofttimes kept awake by the bowling of
| the coyote; we sleep in our tent but
are not afraid, for we know God will
care for us; even when we know that
| rattlesnakes are as thick here are are
the automobiles on Michigan Avenue in
| Chicago. Dear old Chicago. how / wi
enjoy you and my auto once more when
/ return to civilization.
Undoubtedly you are anxious to hear
something of the nature of the ore. In
walk of 100 feet one can find a vari-
ETY. of ore.
We know natures preparation for the
reception of great ore deposits is as
follows: The crust of the earth is pre-
pared Tor the reception of the metals by
great outbursts of melted rock; the
| metals themselves being carried In sus-
! pension in the heated water that every
where traverses the strata. The metals
are deposited in the veins as soon as
| the waters bgin to cool and tn pressure.
to which they were subjected from deep
down in the earths crust, is removed.
A great mineral country is usually
marked by the outcrops of the veins be-
ing persistent in their courses and trace
able for many miles. though very prob
ably many breaks may occur in these
outcrops. The above is characteristic of
this country. The rocks associated with
great ore bodies are lime, porphyry,
granite. shales. states. quartzites and dia-
base.
Fragments of mineral and gangue
known to the miners as flot. is Uttered
over the hills. A central line of erup-
tion may often be traced by masses of
altered rocks and beds Of lava or other
volcanic products. We find the granite
has been melted and the limestone has
acquired magnesia and become dolmar-
ized
l want you to call the members to-
gether at once and find how many of
the Shepherds wish to come here and
assist. 1 am arranging to locate a town
at the mouth of the canyon.
1 also want you to see the railroad
officials about a private car for our re-
turn to Chicago. Get terms and report
to me.
Have the auto-the large one-put in
shape to meet US at the train.
We have several pictures taken at
some of the mines, one at the "Shepher-
ess," also at Paradise mine: will mail
some to you and / want cuts made of
the ones marked for next issue of Sci
entifc Christianity.
A case of typhoid fever God healed
through me In an adjacent camp. 10
am with you always"
How Gods 3 promises are verified.
While in San Francisco 1 noticed vari-
Gus kinds of meetings were conducted
on the street. I may run down there IN
a few days and hold services.
Let the work progress with all earnest
ness in my absence in Christ's name,
Amen.
Peace be unto thee. and all of Gods
people. Praise His holy name!
