will we achieve success and get home. I am pleased with your mining news that is all of it outside of the Hosp affair with Ward that was rotten. I hope you and Pat Carey & Armstrong and all the rest make good on your quartz it must be a pretty high grade or I hope McPherson & all the rest make good. Jack must have a pretty good Company behind him if as you say he has spent $40000 already in his tunnel he must have got a pretty good prospect with his boring machine before he started to drift. Well Fred if I pull out of this U.K. I am going to give Carriboo another trial before I get to old to hike around them old hills I got a better version of Miss Stephensons
