CHAPTER XIX

On the summit of Cumberland gal
Erskine Dale faced Firefly 10 the cas-

swept unbroken back to the rive
James. 1t was all over for him bacl
there and he turned to the wilder
depths, those endless leagues of shad
owy woodlands, that he would never

AT Boonesborough he learned from
the old ferryman that, while the war
| might be coming to an end in Vir-
ginia, it was raging worse than ever
in Kentucky There had been bloody
Indian forays, bloody white reprisals.
fierce private wars, and even then the
whole border was in flame. Forts
had been pushed westward even be-
y0nd Lexington, and 1852 had been

pushed on, and ever grew his hopeless
ness. The British had drawn all the
sayages of the Northwest into the war.
AS soon as the snow was of the
ground the forays had begun. Horses
were stolen. cabins burned. and wOnI-
ell and children were carried off cap
tive. The pioneers had been confined
to their stockaded forts. and only
small bands of rifemen sailed out to
patrol the country. Old jerome San
ders' fort was deserted. Old jerome
had been killed. Twenty-three widows
were at Harrodsburg filing the claims
of dead husbands and among them
were Polly Conrad and Honor San
ders. The people were expecting AN
attack In great force from the In
dians led by the British. AT the Blue
Licks there had been successful am

had lost half their number. among
them many brave men and natural

him and again rode forth with Clark
the northern wilderness. and
this time a thousand mounted rife
stirred at last from his lethargy by
the tragedy of the Blue Licks and
this expedition was one of reprisal
and revenge; and it was TO be the
last. The time WAS autumn and the
corn was ripe. The triumphant saw

upon them like a whlrlwind. Taken |
by surprise, and startled and dis

The following description Of the
Gunsight mine, the great property
which later was included in the
great New Cornelia Mining COM
pany at Ajo is taken from a Pros
pectus of the Carthage Silver Min
ing company of Carthage, Mo-,
1914" and published in a Tucson
paper in 1913:
TO take over and operate what is
now known as the Gunsight Mine,
I6 miles southeast of Ajo, there was
formed at Carthage, Mo-, June 16,
1884, the Carthage Silver Mining
company. The capital stock was
sI0,00O,0 900, divided into shares of
$40 each.
Tht report of the committee, sent
to Arizona to inspect the mines was
in part as follows:
"The Gunsight mining property is
situated in Myers Mining district,
Pima county. Arizona, about 40
miles railroad and about 25 miles
north from the line of the state of
Sonora, Mexico. Also, about So
miles west from Tucson, and so
miles easterly from the Gulf of
California.
The altitude of this property is
$500 feet above sea level, and about
1900 feet above the level of the
valley. 1t is reached by a good
wagon road. both by ella Bend and
from Tucson
THE property consists of three
claims, covered by United States
patents and known as the Eastern
Arizona republican., 1922-05-17

'Gunsight' and Silver Grit These
lodges are nearly parallel with each
other, but the Eastern and Silver
Girt' lie partly inside Of the side
lines of the 'Gunsight,' making the
whole surface covered by the COM
bined title about 1,400 feet wide by
1900 feet in length. Within this
patented ground are four other
lodges, making seven in all. all of
which in every probability will
unite at reasonable depth and make
one mammoth ledge.
""rhe groupings are strong and
bold, the iedges are large and all
in good ore. The formation is the
most friendly for large bodies of
ore, and for living veins. The
lodges are true fissures. There are
about 1000 feet of shafts and drifts
in the mines, and almost entirely
in ore. The ores are rich, abundant,
and continuous from the groupings
400 feet deep. On no place is the
Gunsight ledge on which the main
work is done, less than seven feet
wide: and at 240 feet deep the ledge
is cut over 40 feet wide, all in good
ore. There is, on the dumps and
in the drifts, ore broken down and
ready to mill not less than $250,000.
There are not less than 100000 tons
of pay ore developed in the mine
by the shafts and drifts above men
toned. In fact it is ore everywhere
in the mine.
While the mine was being opened,
the samples were taken daily in

HOW THE FAMOUS
GUNS|CHT MINE
WAS DEVELOPED

At the New Cornelia mine, the ore
is mined by steam shovels and is
loaded and delivered to the crushing
plants in side dump cars. The crush
ing plant is divided into two depart
ments, coarse and fine, which are
separated by a 10,000-ton storage bin.
The coarse crushing department con-
sists of a No. "a gyratory crusher
set on a high concrete pedestal. -Four

on each side, receive the product
from the large crusher and reduce
it to about Ain. (101 mn.) cubes.

bins. The conveyors have magnetic
head pulleys; thtre are also powerful
53-in. (134 cf) mganets hung over
each belt.
The superstructure provides run
way and a 40-ton crane is installed
over a No. "a gyratory crusher; it is
used for handling parts in repair and
for breaking Jams in the bowl of the
crusher. The 10,000-ton storage bin
between the coarse and fine crushers
is of steel, built on an elevated re-
inforced concrete platfor1. 1t Is flat
bottomed and the ore is drawn from
it automatically on to set of four

the usual way, and the assays ran
from few dollars to $4,000 to the
ton. These samples We're taken
from the groupings down. in every
part of the mine, as the work pro-
gressed.
"Of 80 samples, the average shows
$500 per ton. OF these samples,
taking those only under $1,000 per
ton, the average is $154 per ton.
Those under $3.50 per ton average
is $50 per ton; and those under 5000
average s64 per ton. 1t is very safe
to say that taking all the ore in the
mine, without asserting, 1t will yield
$50 per ton, and $12 per ton will
be more than ample to cover all
mining and milling expenses leaving
SIS per ton net profit.
There is also with this property
mill site, patented. of five acres
five miles from the mine, with
abundant water found at about 40
feet deep. The altitude of this is
at least 150 feet above the mine. SO
that water in pipes can be taken
to the mine by gravity.
also, $50 acres of land about two
miles from the mines. on which are
built stables for the teams. Two
wells, each to water 1873 feet; one
of them is 237 feet, In which the
water rises about 70 feet in the dry
time of the year. Also, good and
substantial hosting works and
pumps; over these are good build
ings, and pipe connections to the
mill at the mine. The mill at the
mine is all completed except batter
les and stamps. There are good
hoisting works at the mine with iron
cage for 500 feet depth.

Water Supply
AT the time the property was
taken over. the nearest known water
supply in sufficient quantity for our
purpose was the Gila river, some As
miles (72.42 knn.) to the north. The
development of a closer water sup
ply was one of the important prob
lens to be solved. A large valley
about miles t12.S75 km.) northeast
of Ajo was selected as a likely place
and two wells were drilled. In both
water was found at depth of about
600 feet (1S2 m.) having a temper
ature of 104 degrees F. At one of
these places two compartment
shaft was put down and a modern
pumping plant installed. This shaft
is now delivering 100000 to 1000, 900
gallons (3,02S,000 to 3.7S5,000 ID of
water per day. without any sign of
decrease in volume. The pumping
installation consists of duplex
double-acting high-pressure pump
driven by a direct connected syn
chronous motor. The water is
pumped Ga miles (10.7 km) through
