Hall located the "Oak Leaf" mine in the Fortuna district, about twelve miles northwest of Beaver. Though meeting many discouragements in financing a company to develop the property, his faith in the mine was adamant and he succeeded in interesting several Provo mining men in the property. A company was organized and incorporated under the name of the "Oak Lea! Gold Mining Co.," and for the past several months work on the property has been carried on by a small force of men. The main vein has been followed on an incline for 150 feet and grows more encouraging as they progress. Several Assure veins have come in carry values as high as $50.00 in gold, and the main vein of eight feet is running a good grade of shipping pany to a Provo mining man for the sum of $27500.00. The old road up the canyon to the mine is being repaired and the company expect to begin shipping ore before the first of the year. However, with the vast amount of low grade ore in sight, the installation of a mill in the immediate future is justifiable, and the company is confident that they will be able to get the mill installed within the next few months. Several parties from town made a trip to the property last Sunday and state that there is every indication for the making of a big mine. Seven or eight men are employed at the property at present including C. E. Wheatley, president of the company, and his son, of Provo; H. O. Hall, Jeddy Atkin, Alva Thompson, Tom Corlett and Wm. Logan.

The funeral services were held Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock in the East Ward chapel. The deceased having served in the Medical Corpe during the World War, a Military service was held. The National Guard lead the funeral procession from the home to the chapel, and following the services escorted the remains to the cemetery. The chapel was filled with relatives and friends of the deceased. Cliff and Dr. E. A. Petty of the local American Legion, and Hon. J. F, Tolton were the speakers at the service and a number of musical selections were given. Mrs. Thelma Barton and Lena McGarry, of Milford, each sang solos, while other music was furnished by a quartet composed of Messrs. Milo Baker, Kent Morgan, R. C. Murdock and Gus Fernley. William T. Atkin was born in Beaver, March 13, 1895. He graduated in the Los Angeles Dental College and later practicing his profession in Salt Lake City and in Beaver. Dr. Atkin left Beaver five years ago for the Pacific Northwest and engaged in business for a while in Portland and later in Seattle. The cause of his death was a relapse from a recent operation for intestinal trouble. The deceased leaves his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Atkin; four brothers, Stanley, Ray, Ennis and Joe, all of Beaver; two sisters, Mrs. Sarah Bakes, of Magna, and Mrs. Alice French, of Idaho Falls, Idaho. All were present at the funeral with the exception of Mrs. French, who was in the hospital and unable to come to Beaver. The bereaved relatives have the sincere sympathy of a host of friends in their loss.
