THE TRUTH ABOUT MARSHAL
TOLD BY CORRESPONDANT
(Special Correspondence.
WILLOW CREEK, April IS.—
(By Mail)— This can)]) is not all
gold. Nothing new has been round
this winter. The six (?) claims on
Disappointment creek are a fizzle.
Shorty Edgar sank a hole on No. 2
and got a.good prospect about De
cember 28.—It was supposed to
run six dollars per square foot. In
stead of drifting on it he sank a
few more holes and got a hand drill
and drilled a few more holes with
out picking up anything more. So
he went back to the first hole and
took out about six ounces and a
half which is the total output of
that paystreak. The said creek
was cross cut in several places
without even getting a prospect.
There must have been forty or
fifty holes put down to bed rock on
that creek.

cut it at Discovery without pick
ing up a paystreak, of course that
does not condemn the creek.
Slope creek, another “hope”, fell
by the wayside this winter, but stilt
is a chance.
Prospecting is pretty hard over
here: everything is wet and hard
to get down.
Now about the “good” creek over
here which is Willow creek. This
year will be the banner year here if
nothing is found more. The creek
will produce about $500,000 this
coming summer ($270,000 last
summer) and will employ about,
two hundred men and no more than
250 under most favorable condi
tions at mining. The claims to be
worked are One below, Discovery,
One Above, Two Above, Three
Above, Four Above.
There is also known pay upon
five above and two below: neither
of them will be worked this sum

worked before the freeze-up last
fall and some money taken out—
about $1.50 to the square foot—
but its owners forgot to record
the assessment work so a party
staked it on April 1.
No. 0 above is the last claim on
ihe creek and pretty well up the
; bill so you can figure out the water
problem, (no watershed).
| No. 2 below is deep ground and
| hard to work. It takes a very long
I drain and then they have no ta'l
! ing room while it is a little too
i light to stope
Front Two Below there is no
known pay, a few holes to bed rock
I and a whole lot not to bed rock on
I account of water which may make
a good dredging proposition.
The paystreak is hard to work;
the picking and shovelling is very
hard: muck or clay and rocks with
a rough uneven bed rock. The pay
runs from a dollar to five dollars
I a square foot and is from fifteen to

a hundred feet wide.
We have two towns here. One,
Fortuna Ledge which is old Marshal
and Jungletown or Willow CreeK
which is close to the diggings about
half a mile. Fortuna Ledge is ori
the river and Jungletown is about
nine miles S. E. as the crow flies,
but in the summer by way of a
slough (by boat) to the landing it
is It miles and from the landing
to Willow it is about three miles
The freight from Fortuna to Willow
in winter is $30 and in the summer
$40 a ton.
There are two stores at Fortune.
Ledge and two at Willow. That is
general stores, Porter, formerly A.
E. Edwards and Delbar and Betseli
at Fortuna and Porter anil Shields
at Willow creek. Porter is front
Iditarod and was partner of Dau
Crowley. Grub is not very high
considering freighting and there
seems to be plenty of everything
here until the boats come in in the
Spring.
In the last few weeks there was
quite a few men came in from up
river and quite a few more ex
pected, as this camp got some boost
up the river. There are enough
men hero now to fill all the jobs
this summer.
