 The following spring the party set out southward to Silvef CAy. thence back to Tucson, thence to the Pima Villages" and on to the Hassayam- pa, which they followed to it's source and then crossed to Lynx creek. where they engaged in placer min ing. The ground was so rich that the party took out from an ounce to an ounce and a half per man day. Lynx creek was first called Walkers creek, but the name was changed later when lynx was killed there.
 In the spring of 'e4. the father and mother and younger sister of Mir. Sanders left their home in Inyo coun- ty. Cal. and arrived at the site of Prescott in July of that year.

How her husband was slain by In- dians less than three months after they had settled in Stafford is relat- ed by Mrs. Sonora Allen of Thatcher in an account of her early experiences in Arizona.
 T was born in Utah in 1858. and in the spring of 1884 came to St. Johns. Apache county, with my hus- band, Lorenzo A. Wright" Mrs AL len writes. In September of the next year we settled at Stafford. There was no Thatcher at that time.
 On the morning of Dec. 1. my husband and his brother, Seth Wright, were killed by Apaches of Geroni- mos band few miles east of Solo monville Their horses had been sto- len the night before. as they sup posed by Mexicans, and a pdyse start ed out to recover them. The party followed the thieves all night and when the Indians discovered they were pursued part of them ambushed the whites. My husband and his brother. being in front, were shot instantly.

 Indians had long been active along the trail for weeks and as we travelled we saw unmistakable evidence of their acts. At nearly every station reports were current of Indian out rages both ahead of us and behind us- But we continued.
 Conditions grew worse as we trav- eled and we finally learned that we were between two hostile bands oi Apaches. A military escort had beer dispatched from a Cochise county post to accompany us through the Indian infested districts, we were told. Before the troops reached us however. we came upon the scene o terrible crime, in which an entire party had been wiped out only z few hours before. The blood stain: on their clpthing were still wet wher we reached the spot,' Mrs. Basset said

 T was young girl of IA years and stood the long walk very well. but some of the older ones had a hard time.
 we were enabled to start this journey back with only few of the animals that .strayed back to camp but in a few days we met the Smith brothers train coming west, and they were very kind to us and turned back with their wagons and carried the older people and the wounded men of our party, and thus our distress was greatly relieved.
 Finally, when we had nearly reached Albuquerque we met other emigrants starting out over this same route Among others were MT. Peck and Mr. Baughart and their families, and we made some very pleasant ac- quaintances. One of Mir. Baughart' $ daughters married Judge Wells and one fmarried Governor Oakes Mur- phy, and I married Capt. J. NJ. Simp- son of San Diego. The Hedgepeth brothers both became ministers of the gospel. one of them settling in Arizona and one in California My father and family lived in New Mexico for a number of years. then made another and more successful attempt to reach the land of gold going north through Colorado, and I finally landed in San Francisco ir l 1863.

Somewhere up in the Mazatzal range, below the junction of the White and Black rivers, a wonder fully rich gold mine is supposed to exist, known as the old Doe Thorne mine. For years George w. Bird. pioneer prospector of Arizona, has searched in vain for this wonder gold field.' as it was known.
 Doe" Thorne, a physician and sur geon, was one of the early arrivals in Arizona, as the story goes. He took up his residence on the Gila, along with several other white settlers. A short time later the Apaches went on the warpath, swept down into the valley and killed many whites. In the battle one of the Apache chiefs was seriously wounded. Thorne was held a captive by the Indians and offered his services to aid the wounded chief He succeeded in sav- ing the Indians life and in conse- quence they spared the doctors life But they did not propose to turn him free, the story continues, and so they took him to the mountains with them. Prior to making the triI
 they blindfolded the doctor and did not release the band about his eyes until they reached their destination i in the mountains
 Later they showed him their gold
 mine. When pr. Thorne later effect | ed his escape and returned to civ | ilization he described this mine as | field of pure gold"
 | Tt lay in large nuggets on tn, surface of the earth" he is reported as having said.
 His story was generally accepte, by the whites throughout the sectior
 of Arizona and handed from persor
 to person. The mine was located

G.H. ROTHROCK TOOK
 PIONEERS PHOTOS

One of the earliest professional photographers in Arizona was George H. Rothrock. who is now in San Diego.
 Mir. Rothrock first settled in Yuma which he describes as the greatest distributing point in Arizona for freight. This was in 1878 MT. Roth rock gives an interesting account of his trip in a blackboard over the greater part of the territory. describ- ing how rumors of Indian uprisings flew thick and fast along the trails. While today the passing tourists interest centers on the condition of the road ahead and the chances of getting through without sticking in the mud. in those days it was a ques- ton as to what were the chances of getting by marauding Apaches.
 At one time Mir. Rothrock came into Fort Verde to meet the news that he had been killed along the road.
 The keen disappointment of the professional picture shooter is indi- Hted in Mir. Rothrock's narration of his failure to get picture of a way laid government freight wagon with the bodies of six teamsters stretched out on the ground. The outfit had been raided by Apaches. The pho tographer's failure was due to two factors. first that he had only dry plates to work with. and second the MeNicans accompanying him didn't want to wait around the scene of the massacre long enough to have the pictures taken on the dry plates

 Nj. R. Johnson, the father. IS more or less active despite his advanced age and vigorous life. Twelve times during his life he has been wounded by gunfire. four times previous to the Civil war and eight times during the war. He is a Confederate veteran, having served in Prices army under Col. Joseph Shelby.
 In 1851, lured by the gold strike in California, he, started for the Pa cific coast Reaching Aspenwald in the IsthEus of Panama he was stricken with cholera and left to die
 Sometime previous an old Indian woman had told him about calimus root and he ate freely of it. In few days he was again able to travel, so he hired a mule and started for the west coast Heavy rains had fallen and the mule finally got stuck in the mud. so MT. Johnson aban- doned the animal and continued his journey afoot He finally reached California, where he engaged in placer mining for period of four years, returning to the south and later entering the Confederate army
 At the wars end he came with his family to Arizona and has been g resident of this state continuously 1 since 1868.
