Severe Punishment
Another of McCanles victims was
Holmes, who lived in the vicinity Of
the Rock creek station. Holmes stole a
suit of clothes from one of the men
working for McCanles. McCanles at
tended to the punishment. He threw
a lariat around the man and led him
to the station where the rope was
thrown over the house, the men pulling
Holmes up onto the roof when they
would release their hold and let him
fall to the ground. To complete the
torment, he was forced to climb the
honey locust tree. His wounds became
swollen and festered and he came near
losing his life.
Another story of his brutality is
shown in his treatment of an Indian.
Bands of Indians frequently passed
the station. Mrs. McCanles was pre-
pairing breakfast one morning when a
party Of them came along. The family
were eating when she arose to get a
pan of biscuits she had left by the
window. What was her surprise to find
them gone. She called her husbands

There is hope for Virginia City'S
famed historic locations, according to
w. r. Rankin, an employe of the United
States department of the interior, who
cave.
Mr.. Rankin announced recently that
the federal government plans construc-
ton of a hewed log and native stone
building-early day Virginia City arch
! itecture-on some historic site in exact
duplication of the original building, the
memory of which it is proposed to
perpetuate.
The government representative nro-
dents for the purpose of learning
which building would, in their opinion,
be most suitable for restoration. He
stated that Tom Castle, owner of the
Madisonian, is in his opinion the best
informed man in the early day capital
regarding things historical.
Residents Pleased
Louis Rooney, 70, a native of Virginia
City, announced recently that Virginia
City is pleased with federal interest
in its relics.
Rooney says his father was a friend
of william Fairweather, who led the
prospecting party into Alder gulch to
make Montana gold mining history.
He says Fairweather declared that his
tory was wrong and he discovered the
gold in the fall of 1862 instead OF the
Spring of 1868 as history states. Fair
weather and five companions were on
Helena from Bannack and camped at
what is now Virginia City, he said,
following an indian attack. Their
camp was about where the Thompson
Hickman museum now stands, on Nam
street, about a quarter mile from l
gulch.

strike. A monument marks this sup
posed place in Alder gulch. It was
erected by A. J. Davis in memory OF
his uncle. A, J. Davis. But Rooney says
F%airweather declared that gold was
discovered near their camp. A picketed
horse had wound the rope around a
mil up the brush to disentangle the
rope-and noticed colors. He, Rooney
said. banned some of the dirt and re-
covered about IS worth OF gold. Thls

the late George Bruffy, Alder gulch
