the line nearest Hawthorne that a
number of persons narrowly escaped
being trampled over, and in numerous
instances injuries were reported.
Those who had waited for the signal

the most valuable claims in the vicin-

and numerous creeks emptying into
the southwestern part Of Walker lake
had been taken up by men who had
rushed in the night before. Even men
who employed launches to take them
across Walker lake from the eastern
side found that their efforts were of
no avail, as they were much too late
to be on an equal footing with the
men who had disregarded all law.
