Albany-Though they are both
over so years OF age, G. G. King, Of
San Jose, Cal, and Robert L. Smith,
of Corvallis, Or, two pioneer miners,
left this week for the Cascade noun
tains to look for a long-lost mine.
In the early '70s, w. A. Paul, a we'll
known Linn county pioneer, was
hunting near Mount Jefferson when
he discovered quartz ledge of won
derful richness. A sample of the ore
he brought to Albany assayed $4,000
to the ton.
He kept the discovery secret, but
was later unable to locate his find.
King was one of the few friends he
told of the location of the discovery,
as nearly as he could remember It,
In talking over old times, Paul's
lost mine was mentioned and King
said he believed he could find 1t. The
two octogenarians decided in spite
of the fact that King is SO years old
and Smith 80, to try to relocate the
rich lost ledge. w. S. Paul, son of
the original discoverer of the ledge,
will accompany them.
