story:
For over a month Michael Joseph
Sullivac. a trapper, was held captive by
two Germans to keep him from telling
about finding gold.
He has been released and the story he
te;l? ha-- caused a big stampede over
the divide, wbere.lt is said, 110 pans

art oouimoo. It is said to be an exten
sion of the rich i>ay streak along
Thanksgiving oreek.
The t>erman* were pi-ogpec'ing all
winter o? Baker flats. They were busy
taking out the gold when surprised by
Sullivan. He talked with them a while

ticent. After ta.kuig ?>ide a moment
thev invited him ioto their cabin to
have something to eat. Alter be wa?
inside the two men took him by sur
prise and bound hire hand ar.d fool.
They cold him thai they would cot hurt
him if he behaved, but they intended tc
