those gentlemen have received or

GEORGE INGMAN DEAD
Pioneer Stage Driver Passes
Away at Caldwell.

The news of the death of George
Ingman, the veteran stage driver
which occurred Sunday night at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. A J.
Mayfield of Caldwell, will bring sad
ness and sincere regret to thous-
amos OF his acquaintances and
friends scattered throughout the en-
tire West, from Iowa to the Cas-
cade mountains. So far as known,
he was the sole survivor Of the fear
less stage drivers of the noted Ov-
erland Stage Line and Pony Express
operated from Atchison, Kan, to
the coast. His experiences during
his more than half a century's SER
vice as stage ddriver would fill vol
umes with as thrilling tales as We
ever encountered, and his numerous
hair breadth escapes from death in
encounters with Indians and high
waymen were miraculous.
George Ingman was born in
Clio 80 years ago. When a young

man he was fireman on one of the
primitive locomotives operating on
the Mad River G. Lake Erie rail-
road, the first railroad built in
Ohio. During the presidential cam
paign in 1851 he fired the engine
that pulled General Winfield SCOTS
train from Sandusky to Dayton, Obi,
Mr. Ingman's first experience as
stage driver was in 1852 between
| Davenport and Blue Grass, Iowa.
In 1861 he drove for the Overland
stage from St. Joseph, Mo, to Ken
nekuk, Kan, distance of "a miles,
and five years later went to Atchi-
son, Kan, and was given the finest
siX-horse outfit on the Overland.
These horses were sorrels and cost
Ben Holiday, owner of the Overland
Stage Line, s1,40O. George was
very proud of this outfit, the finest
turnout ever seen on a stage line.
In 1870 he came to Idaho and for
many years he drove between Boise
and LaGrande, Ore. He drove the
stage which hauled Frank Coffin of
Boise and ihs bride on their we'd
ding trip from Huntington to But
termilk Slough, near Weiser, 40
years ago. OF the eight drivers on
that route he was the sole survivor
For many years he drove on the EN-
mett-Van Wyck stage line and was
known and loved by a host of people
in the upper country.
Mr.. Ingman loved horses and took
great pride in keeping those under
his charge in perfect condition. He
was careful driver, and was in his
happiest mood when handling the
lines over a four or six-horse out
fit. He was a fine sort of man;
rough in way, but with a heart /
as kind as a chi!d's. He possessed { |

assays from the ore at the end
of the tunnel show values of $3.50
per ton, and the ore at the grass
roots assays $41.57. Its value war
rants its shipment without being cor
centrated and it is by far the rich
est, most extensive and most i'm
portant discovery made in that sec
ton.
News of this valuable strike,
coupled with the certainty that the
| Idaho Northern extension will be
built this year has started a great
revival of the mining operations
which have been dormant for four
years Or more. The United Mining
Co. is opening up their mines and
putting large force of men at work.
The Kentuck will at once resume
operations with large force of men
and drift for the ledge which is
within 400 feet of the end of their
tunnel. The entire tunnel, 100 feet
in length, will be retimbered as soo1
as lumber can be secured. The
Horseshoe company is working a
small force and taking out ore from
2 Y foot ledge that is being sack
ed and shippeddirect to the smelter.
A number of other mines, including
the Mint and Denver, are prepar-
ing to begin work at an cary date.
The Idaho Northern railroad ex-
tension taps one of the most ex-
tensive mineral belts in the world, !
and it is predicted that when pro-
vided with transportation that sec
ticn will become the greatest gold /
and silver camp in existence. In
extent it is almost limitless and its
value is beyond computation.
