For Kotsina River
Oscar Breedman and Neil Fin
nesand started the eigtheen
th on a trip to their properties
that are located at the head of
the Kotsina river.
It was expected that the prop
erty was to have been developed
during the past season, supplies
having been hauled for that pur
pose during the past winter,but
unforseen difficulties were en
countered that necessitated the
partners allowing the ground to
stand idle.
There is to be a great deal of
activity during the coming sum
mer, however, as the partners
interested outside capitalists who
ntend to exploit the ground to
the greatest extent
Locally, the partners property
is considered excellent, and ac
cording to many who have been
on the claims, there is no doubt
but what a first class miue will
be developed.
