Castle, One of Montana's Ghost Towns,
May Come To Life at Some Future Time

1t was a silver camp n shared the fate
of that metal.
When at It's best, Castle was one Of
The richest mining camps in the state.
1t had two smelters, although 1T might
be thought one would have been SUI
ficient. The buildings erected were of a
more substantial lind han are usually
found in mining towns. Some Of these
are still remaining in q good state OF
preservation.
Its mines were silver carrying lead,
copper, gold and manganese, and at one
time were the sources of enormous prof.
It's to the owners. 1t is claimed that
over s 5000, 900 worth Of ore was taken
from the Cumberland alone, while others
state that was the amount produced from
all the mines.
Marcus DAILY Interested
Marcus Daily took interest in the mines
of the Castle district, and invested large
ly there, which he certainly would not
have done unless he was confident Of
their future. Everything looked prom
Using for mines and town, the latter
having increased its population to 1900,
all of whom had implicit faith in its
continued growth and prosperity.
Within a mile Of the town there was
a railroad commonly known as THE
Jawbone," that lessened the cost Of
freight, which was necessarily high on
ore. 1t also brought the mail, and 1t
could only be a question of q short time
when the town would extend to and
beyond the railroad terminus.
Then the blow fell. Silver was de-
monetized, cutting severely the profit
on its production, and in many instances
entirely eliminating 1T. The mines at
Castle closed down one by one. the
smelter ceased operating, and the town,
depending as 1t did upon the mines and
nothing else, swiftly declined. Its bust
ness men sought better localities; the
miners left for more stable camps, or en-
gagged in other occupations, and soon
but very few people we're left there In
what was once a prosperous town.
After the smelters shut down, mining
did not cease altogether, for $4,000
worth of ore was hauled to the railroad
and shipped to Helena, work continuing
at the mines as long as it was profitable.
The sale Of the ~"Jawbone" to the Mil
yankee resulted in it's being torn out.
, But the railroad now is but eight miles
from Castle, with an easy grade the
whole distance.
These mines Of the Castle district are
not exhausted. and 1t is possible that
before long the. town may take on new
life, when there is again demand for
the treasures hid in the neighboring
mountains. At present the townsite is q
favorite summer resort for hunters ana
fishermen, and also families who wish
to sojourn In the country. With an abun-
dance OF silver and copper in its vicinity,
1t is not likely 1T will remain unsought.
Marcus Daily, who was undoubtedly quail
flied to judge. thought its copper mines
worth developing, and proved 1t by the
money he expended there.
Some not distant day 1t Is safe 10
prophesy that Castle will cease 10 be an
apparition, as 1t once again joins the
! living.

a 8 5000 schoolhouse was built and the
town officers qualified.
An Ambitious Town
These officials we're ambitious in their
efforts to improve the town. They at
once set about installing q water system,
and made application for a franchise to
supply the town with electricity and
for having a street railroad. BY this
time, of course, Castle had ceased to be
a mere town-it was a city, with 1000
inhabitants then, and hundreds OF
thousands estimated for the bright
future.
The eldest Of the Hensley brothers,
F.. L. Hensley, was born in Kirkville, Mo.
In 1870. he went to Colorado, where he
was employed in Hills smelter for three
years. His next move took him to the
Black Hills, and from there he came
to Montana in 1875. Here ne engaged
for a time in teaming, until he located
in Castle. He was the discoverer OF the
Cumberland mine, the richest in the dis
trict.
w. A. Kelly, who also came to Montana
via the Black Hills from New York, or
ganized the Kelly Mining company, and
the Triumvirate company. Another
prominent business man of Castle in Its
| palmy. days, w. H. Dickinson, had for
merly been connected with the we'll
known firm Of Bach-Cory company. hav-
ing been their manager at Gloster, Greg
DRY and Boulder. His line being mer-

A Canadian, David Kemp. freighted
from Castle to Billings with a ten-horse
| team, noted as the best outfit OF It's
kind on the road in those days.
Then there was the witty Joe MARITIME,
who came to Castle to r charcoal for
the Yellowstone silver n lead smelter.
Later, he kept q store, continuing Dust
ness after ali other stores had closed.
With this introduction to a few Of Its
former citizens, it is we'll to obtain q
glimpse of the city (?) of Castle as told
by one who knew it, his name unknown
to me, as is likewise that OF the paper
from which his article was clipped:
Ideal Place to Live
About 80 years ago when silver, lead,
| gold and iron were discovered In large
quantities, people flocked here from
every part of the globe-commodious and
pleasant dwellings were built, stores,
smelters, an dmany other public bulld-
ings were erected and people found 1t an
ideal place to live. Not too cold in VIM

always by the lofty peaks overlooking

blessings which go to make life COM

ing a form common to all. There will
be seen dwellings and business houses on
either side of one or more streets, and
these now in every state OF decay. Built
of logs, they are w~indowless, with gap

Remnants of sluice boxes along the

once a busy mining town, dependent
upon this industry alone. The mines ex-

Such a town as I have pictured is
Castle, situated about five miles from
the south branch of the Musselshell
river, on Allabaugh creek. Near at hand

It derives its name. The early settlers
of our state were, as q rule, not gifted
with Imagination, and what they had

of unusual intelligence, who saw in the
contour of this mountain resemblance
to o castle.
