requested that the method % cross

On November % 1914. one Of the
dates which has figured largely in the

become convinced that the gold fields
would not produce any paying coarse
gold gravel. but that he had not con-
demned the fields wholly and wished
the drills 20 be sunk 10 the lower or
bed rock levels.
