where they must have tcld their story to
good many men. Heath and Burris were at
the time gold mad, too, and they did not get
any kind of directions to the ledge or consider
leaving the hunt for gold to go after it,
Well, as I just said these two old prospec-
tors had the mining fever again and had It

plenty of camp equipment and firearms, and a
full belt of money.
FTER they left, Will Smith and I hung

in the same direction that Heath and BurriS

When we got to Eagle Pass we learned that

One of them was described as a youngish man:
the other fine-looking. large-gramed well
preserved man of perhaps 10 years. Will Smith
and I set out on their trail. and in that high
wild country between Devils River and the

they appeared sulen and resentful of our cem-

we could hardly separate without an open
rupture Remember that the land west IF

Smith, and threw in together and struck for
the fabulous diggings, crossing the Rio Grande
at Eagle Pass.
When we got down to the Sierra Mojada we
found the country swarming with men and
not nearly enough silver to go around. In fact,
the mines soon petered out. We milled about
for several days, seeing good many people
we knew and hearing all sorts of talk. Among
the men of Southwest Texas We met up with
were old man Heath and old man Burris. They
had both been out to California in 1849; this sec
ond attack of the mining fever was worse than
the first; and now, they said they were going
on WeSt-out into New Mexico Arizona or
somewhere. We talked about mines that had
been found and mines to be found. and Heath
and Burris told a tale of wonderful ledge Of
silver somewhere in Chihuahua. They had
heard about it from California gold hunters.
According to what they said, expedition
Of Americans, most of them Texans, were
passing through Chihuahua in 1849 on their
way to California Apaches and Comanches
both had been killing Mexicans and driving
horses until the whole country was paralyzed.
Rancheros were afraid to stir from the fortified
walls that surrounded their houses, and whole
villages were abandoned. The Governor of the
State had announced bounty of $50 for every
Indian scalp brought in, and these Americans
stopped to earn little expense money. 1t may
be said in passing that there were other scalp
hunters, too, and that eventually the bounty
had to be withdrawn, for some Ct them got to
bringing in Mexican hair. 1t was easier to
take than Apache hair.
While the California bound gringos were out
on one chase after scalps they ran into
ledge Of silver somewhere in the mountains.
They reached a bunch of Apaches and left
their carcasses right against the ledge. The
silver made an impression on them all right, but

their sporting instincts and also to collect

I have always been. an eager hunter and
kept the camp supplied with fresh venison.
Then after a while Heath and Burris told
us the story Of the two strangers who were
travelling with them. They swore that moth.
ing less than fate and brought them together.
The younger of the strangers was from st.
Louis, where he had been working in q hotel;
his name was McNeill and he was a nevry man,
as L afterward had occasion to know. The
older man was from San Francisco and else
where; his name was Fanche Fanche and
Mcneil. both seemed frank in manner, and
they had apparently unboSomed themselves 10
Heath and Burris.
They were looking for the lost silver ledge
In Chihuahua and they were taking Heath and
Burris in with them Thirty years before
Fanche had been in California and learned of
the silver ledge from some of the scalp hunters
who saw it. He knew and called by name some
of the men that Burris and Heath had heard
tell the story.
From the moment he heard of the ledge
Fanche had determined to find it, regarding it
something more definite than gold. So he
had questioned the scalp hunters infinitely and
secured the best directions possible. But con-
ditions in Mexico were so turbulent that Fanche
waited for years before going in search Of the
ledge. Then, after he had looked for a long
time, he took in as partner a man named Golf,
whom he met at Parral. They rode and camped
among the mountains-and they found the
ledge of silver as described Conditions in Mex
leo still unsettled and the region was still
so overrun by Apaches and bandits that they
thought it would be better to wait while be-
fore denouncing the claim.
A FEW years passed and Porfirio Diaz as
President was getting the country under
control In 1879 Fanche engaged to meet Golf
in st. Louis. from which place they were to
take train for San Antonio and thence proceed
by stage and private conveyance. He arrived
