What attracted them was the wealth of timber available for logs and lumber. The Idea of underground riches came first to Gen. Patrick E. Connor and his soldiers at Fort Douglas in 1862. Early in 1SG3 George B. Ogilvie picked up a piece of "float which he took to Gen. Connor. It proved to be silver-leaore.
