The second payment on the Erie mine
in the Graniteville district has been
paid by the company represented by r.
G. Eckis, manager of the property, ac-
cording to the announcement made last
night on the arrival of Eckis and
George Mainhart from Graniteville.
It was announced in this paper
week ago that Manager Eckis had re-
turned from the east where he went to
consult with the capitalists associated
with him in the purchase of the Erie,
and that on his return he announced
his trip a most successful one; that the
company was highly pleased with the
achievements and the condition of the
mine and was willing to go on with
the work and eventually make the pur-
chase of the mine.
This second payment on the prop
erty which is reported to be of consid
erable proportions, shows the conf
dence of Eckis and his hackers in the
mine and the district in which it is To-
Gated.
Since last autumn Manager Eckis
