Friend Abbott: l received your
letters few days ago, they found
me hard at work, consequently in
good health. l am still cutting
wood, have sold $50 cords at So So
per cord and have a contract for
!oo cords more. | receive no pay
for the wood until next July.
We are prospecting the claims
now, l say I'VE" four of the s
partners are and the ether four fur
nlsh boilers, etc; and grub and
wood. / furnish the wood and tools.
They have sunk two shafts to bed.
rock, one 6S feet and the other IA
feet, and they have third one down
30 feet. There is depth of ID feet
of gravel on bedrock and it all has
little fine gold, yet not enough to
pay to work. Such q body Of gravel
would be q rich proposition in the
states. The boys will sink two
more shafts, making five all told,
and then they tunnel or drift from
one shaft to the other till they arc
all connected; then they will quit
for the winter. I hope they will
hit the pay streak good and hard.
Yes, Andy, times places and people
all change as time rolls on. ii YOU
were to meet me on the street in
Manchester, you would not know
me, you OF course think you would.
Nothing but the empty coat sieve
would look familiar to you. 1t is
twenty years remember since YOU
saw me, and have spent most Of
that time in the wilds of Alaska ff.
teen-of it. If yon and l live two or
three years longer, I will give you
chance to see me. ] believe that
look older than you do.
My people, except neice, are at
Seattle, and are all we'll fixed finan-
cially. My father is hale and
hearty. He passed his ninety
eighth birthday on the 25th of last
December 81 81
Talk about hard times and no
cash, Why? there is not a dollar IN
this camp everything is script
counting house certificates. and
little or no work to be had and
about 5000 idle, men all broke
While it is hard in this camp now,
after month or so there will be
plenty of work.
| think I will go up the Tanana
River again next fall, if these claims
do not turn out we'll. l must get to
bedrock up there before l leave
Alaska for good. am sure that
creek is rich with gold, if one can
only get down to bedrock, and I
