CAPTAIN PIERCE LED GOLD
SEEKERS TO IDAHO DN 1860

Professor Brosnan's discovery that he
has been given but passing mention.
Not eve his first name was known.
In 1918 Professor Brosnan had the
unique honor OF publishing a first
picture in his school history of Idaho.
Letters Give Sidelights
A bundle of dim, faded letters,
written during the days Of 40 be-
tween Mrs. Henry Jenkins, Knox
township, Ind, and her husband in
the California fields, form a chain
of historical facts telling of Pierce's
work and operations before he NOV
ed north. jenkins was evidently a
close friend of Pierce, for nearly
every letter contained interesting
sideights on the characteristics of
n man who several years later was
to have the distinction OF being the
central figure In the second western
gold excitement.
Pierce and his party started pros
pecting in the Calaveras county sec
ton, but later moved to Shasta City,
Shasta county, from where he sent
encouraging reports. From Shasta
moved to San Joaquin county and
later to Yreka In the Siskiyou noun

trail.

was while at the latter point that he
fell in with Billy Farrell, then
champion boxer OF the Pacific coast,
and he became enthused with the idea
OF becoming a prize fighter.
BILLY was my pal, you see," he
continued, "and l guess l would have
been boxing yet were it not for the
fact hat I got run over by a three
ton truck that sent me tt the hospi-
tai for several weeks"
1t might be added that up to this
time he had engaged in three fights.
THE first time I got licked pretty
bad" he said, "but the second one
was a draw, while the last time l
licked the other fellow.
Trips to Alaska
His fighting career definitely end
ed by his injuries, he then cast about
for other adventures and in due
course of time he signed up as quar-
termaster aboard a steamship bound
for Alaska. He made this trip three
times.
ION one of these trips we were
shipwrecked just outside of Anchor
age, Alaska" he said. "The chief
engineer was an Englishman and he
didn't understand the American sys-
tenn of bells.
I'VE were passing out a narrow
passage when the captain gave the
signal to slow down. The chief en-
gineer mistook the bells and started
backing up.
Then it was the captains turn TO
get excited and he began ringing ali
of the bells. The engineer didn't
know what to do so he gave her full
ahead and we went high and dry
upon the rocks"
On another occasion, he said, when
their ship was carrying a shipment of
dynamite, a large locomotive that
had been lashed to the deck refused
to "stay put" and broke loose during

nad already passed over he jumped
across Oregon and Washington into
the Similkameen river section in
british Columbia, but returned to
Waila Walla in 1858. He tried farm
ing for a while and built up a herd
OF 10 cattle, when he was lured back
70 the trail by reports brought to
Walla Walla by traders. Confident
mat gold could be found in the Clear
water country he organized a party
ana in 1859 started into the noun
talns. His entry into the Nez Perce
country was opposed by the Indians,

With Dust to Sell
Colors" were found in the sands
OF Canal creek, near the present town
OF orofino, and additional prospect
ing was planned. The following year
miners returned to Portland with
dust to sell and their tales Of the fab
ulous richness of the new fields soon
hooded the trails with miners. The
fields were quickly drain
"a n the movement quickly spread
INTO all parts of Idaho and into Mon
lana and Washington. When the
excitement reached its crest, Pierce
disappeared, but to this day the town
grew around his first prospect
ground and placer diggings bears his
name.
When 1t came time for historians
gather in the story of the gold
discovery in Idaho they could find
only scattered fragments and the dis
covery this summe seems to have
saved this remarkable incident from
almost complete oblivion.

1t is odd that a man who played ar
important part In early Montana and
Idaho history should also be a mar
of mystery.
Such was the case of Captain Elias
D. Pierce, who in the summe OF
1860 led a party OF prospectors into
the virgin gold fields of the Clear
water river country in what is now
the state of Idaho, and started the
second of the three great western
mining movements. This movement
was of such Significance that it re-
suited in the creation OF the state
of Idaho from a portion of the Oregon
territory.
No One knew much about Captain
Pierce and only a few Of the pioneers
around erich Old PIERCE" one of the
richest diggings of the early times,
named in honor of its discoverer,
were able to recall details of his first
expedition into the country. Sixty
three years have elapsed since Cap
tain Pierce made his discovery and
while the rush was at high tide he
slipped from sight. The story of Cap
tain Pierce has been so meager of
proof that it sometimes
has been discredited.
Look up Relatives
Historians have been content to
let Pierce come in a shadow and after
playing his part, vanish in a mist.
Research work conducted this sum-
mer by Cornelius j. Brosnan, of the
of American history at
University OF Idaho, brings to
light the only known details of
Pierce's personal history.

DR.. b. A. IrOnside, prominent Butte
dentist, has returned home a robust
man with a long story of adventure,
but with a system well filled of trav-
els.
1t was a desire to travel that lured
him away from home on a cold win
try evening during January of 1919
without a cent In his pocket, but it
was the longing for home that
brought him back and not an empty
pocketbook.
AT the time of the boys disappear
ance, DR.. Ironside sent out a descrip-
ton far and wide. He also adver-
tised extensively in the newspapers
for his SOB, who had SO mysteriously
dropped from sight. Weeks lapsed
into months and months into years
and hope had almost been abandon
ed of ever receiving word from him.
The story the young man relates is
full OF interesting details, including
a life at sea, during which time he
was shipwrecked, and a venture in
business. when, as he explains it, his
partner kept a better set of books
than he did with the result that he

are only a part of his story.

II just got the roaming fever one

"And I want to tell you I walked
