This week pateaG TO the Eighiy-Six
lode claim in this district was fled
for record in County Recorder Nc.
Donald's Office at Tombstone, patent
being issued to John Sullivan and the
Chiricahua & Duluth Development
company.
The Eighty-Six is claim at the
southwest corner of what is known
as the Sullivan group. Application
for patent on ii was applied for about
three years ago and precipitated liti-
cation which was concluded only last
January in favor OF the company. the
contestants-so IL is understandable
ing granted certain EIincr concessions.
The contest having been disposed of,
the continuance of patent proceedings
were IN order and have thus been ter
minated successfully.
II is understood here that applica-
ton for patents was also made to
the Arizona, Colorado and Eclipse
claims of the same group, at the same
time that application was made tor
patent to the Eighty-Six; and IL is
not known why the name of the latter
claim thus appears alone in the eoun-
ty records.
The Sullivan group Is considered
a mine certainty, n spite of the fact
that not very much development work
has been done on IL. The group was
sold by John Sullivan to the Duluth
Chiricahua Development company Tor
SAG, 1000 in cash. P Nelson of Duiutn,
Mich, is president: Geo. II. Crosby,
Duluth, Mimi, secretary and treas
urer. and E. f. Sweeney, Baxter
Springs, Kan, vice president and gen
eral manager Il ka6 been reported
that there was $4,000 in the treasury,
and that Development would be COM
menced upon the favorable termina-
ton of litigation. However, the prop
erty is still idle.
The principal working on the Sulh-
van is a. 70-foot one and one-half com
partment shaft, well timbered, with
drifts at the bottom. There Is also
another shaft OF about the same deuih
and open cuts, tunnels, etc. ..
One open cut discioses copper car
Donates that can be seen by the
naked eye for several miles: and not
only is the property SNOWY, but it
possesses ore in quantity, and at the
depths attained. The property has
never been turned down by any min
ing man who has visited il, and, in
fact, has a name popular throughout
the entire southwest.
II is understood that the company
Is undergoing reorganization, and It
| is probable that work will be begun
early in the coming year.
The company Is non engaged in
doing the annual work on its various
| unpatented claims in the district, in
GLIDING its interest in the Copperop-
| offs group.
San Simon,
| Assessment work on tho San Simon
/ group was concluded on the 30tii Of
| November.
The tunnel was then in about 500
feet. Though ore had not been en-
countercd. the iron shovingS were
good.
Likes CORTLAND Camp.
| Frank and VIII Hawkins drove in
from CourtlaAd SUNDAY They return,
ed Friday, fully QUILTED and prepared
1 to stay there indefinite rs They are
much pleased with the new aTRp. II
| is their opinion that CORTLAND is des-
tined to be one Of the greatest copper
producing camps IL the entire south
| west, III lIle near lUllTe, dS several
properties there have evidently
passed the prospect stage and arc
now entitled to be called mines. A
boom is not in sight yet. however
for the reason that the townsite has
not yet been plated out. The big
companies hold all the available land
under bond only, ana are not disposed
to issue surface leases in what is now
the business section OF town because
the business section is on mineral
ground which may be NEEDED at any
time Tor mining or other company pur
poses.
