These are the copies of the pages of a handwritten journal that has been seen by very few. Beginning in November of 1922 and ending in 1929. As L.W. Duncan writes it "Such is the Life of a Prospector".
"Saturday March 28th, 1925, 5am Wind blowed all night and still blowing a hurricane here. Will stay home and cook beans. Sam came up from Dayton with Harry Bonham. He wrecked his car".
Saturday April 4th, 1925, 5am, Warm and cloudy this morning, no wind. Same going to Dayton to work for Rudy with the sheep. I measured off the Brooklyn and the quartzite mining claims also the Red Top Claim fixed measurements. 12 noon squally snowing wind from the North, stormed all day snow all melted.
