Show From Lion Hill. Wo had a call yesterday from Mr. II. B. Manchester, Superintendent of tho Abbey Tunnel and Mining Co., East Cauon, who showed us soma very fine specimens of milling rock from the tunnel which he had taken out himself. Tho assay gives 235.G2por ton, from average ore, a figure which showa how valuable the work on tho tunnel will be. The tunnel tun-nel is now in twenty feet; when completed com-pleted it will bo about two hundred and fifty foot in a direct lino, its location loca-tion being fifteen hundred feet on each side. It will pass directly under the cave recently discovered, from which wero reports of glittering horn silver, hut tho knowledgo that such exists in tho cave is confined to a very few. |
