taken up by Sam Spence and Ed Smith. who
bored several holes and found some good ore.

slowness of results and Smith traded his interest
in the claim for $50 worth of lumber. Finally
the claim was abandoned and for ten years has
been open to relocation. ----

and Gus Irish began digging around the OLD

and a small percentage of copper to the ton.

The hanging wall is perfect as ever shown
in any mine, and the ore vein is from eighteen
inches to two feet in thickness. Work has been
started on a tunnel Flint creek, which Will

If the ore shows the same richness there the
mine will be of great value. Several mining
