In II conversation over the phone with
Mr.. Hardman at Gold Creek yesterday,
he said that tho three men who left
y ElkO last week for Jarbidgc had reached
his place and would leave there today
for the new camp. They had taken the
tongue out Of their sleigh and were
going to hitch their horses tandem. In
this way, he said, the horses could
follow the broken trail and could make
better progress Mr.. ,Harlnan said the
distance between ElkO and ,Jarbitlge
was not nearly AZ great Az reported.
He figured it at about 10 miles.
Seventy-five miles from Elko to Gold
Creek and thirty five from Gold Creek
to Jarbidge. He also thought this
the best time to go into the camp as the
roads were now much better than they
would be in the spring.
