'49 [1849], returning home convinced that he had in his Georgia mine a better thing. He has worked his Georgia property ever since in a small primitive way, more with a view of ascertaining its great possibilities than the extraction of its riches. Notwithstanding, in this manner he has made himself comparatively a rich man, and it was not until within two years that he finally yielded to the importunities of his children, either to mine by modern methods, involving the expenditure of a large amount of money, or sell. His absolute faith is further most practically proven from the fact that he has retained an interest in the Company, as well as a directorship.
NECESSARY CAPITAL
This Company desires additional capital to open up its great placer, build one or more dredge boats to operate in the river belonging to the Company, to erect a 50-stamp mill with suitable appliances for treating the ores, install pumping plants and construct reservoirs.
