Thinks He Has Real Gold.
Warden w. L. Billiard has some SAM
pies of ore taken from a ledge not far
from Ianielson that he thinks are
worth the expense of assay to deter

The nature of the substance strik-
ingly resembles the precious yellow
metal and a report on their value will
be awaited with interest.
