BIG FREE GOLD VEIN
IS DISCOVERED IN THE '
WILLOW CREEK CAMP
What is purported to be the richest
quartz strike ever made in this part
of Alaska is reported from t,4e head
of Peterson creek, in the Willow creek
district, and such reliable mining men
as Wm. Martin, Fred McCoy and Fred
Laubner substantiate the claim of
Jesse Garber in his assertion that he
has made the “Goddess" that rules the
Willow creek district show the hole
card, and it was covered with gold—
free gold.

inis siriKe was mam* »iuuu
past few days and Mr. Garber was in
Anchorage himself yesterday, tiling
the necessary papers making himself
and associates owners of a very rich
group of quartz claims in the V\ iilow
creek district. The fortunate associ
ates of Mr. Garber and the ones in on
the ground floor ami who furnished
the grub stake are Fred McCoy, >
Staurt Maxwell, C. H. Thompson ami
Miss Annie W. Dickey. Messers, j
Maxwell and McCoy left Anchorage!
today to accompany Mr. Garber to the
new strike ami see for themselves
and arrange for immediate develop
ment of the property.
Jesse Garber left Anchorage on the
12th of June for the hills to the north
of kmk and says he prospected a
section that had never previously been
visited; the original find was a float
which, followed down, resulted in un
covering a ledge near the head of
Peterson creek, making an ideal loca
tion for a mine and mill site.
This property is about eight miles
north and west from the Martin mine
and six miles due north of the Gold
liuilion, and Mr. Garber, who is one
of the best prospectors in the country
and very reliable, feels that he is
justified in saying that nothing to
equal this discovery of high-grade ore
has ever been found in this part ot
Alaska. One feature in connection
j with the strike is that the property
is not for sale, nor is any part of n
for sale; the men connected with Mr.
I,arbor ire financially able !o pu. in
a modern and complete outfit at owe
land have gme to the strike with tins
i end in view. The result of their visit
will mean that active development
will start at once and men put to
work, machinery installed and the
Jesse B. be added to the gold produc
ers of this famous gold quartz section
of Alaska.
In opening up the Jesse B. claim
proper Mr. Garber took out 15 tons ot
free milling ore and uncovered five |
leads of milling ore within 150 feet of
each other; with the veins ranging
from two to eight feet in width.
The ore is a chloride and exception
ally high value and the Jesse B. has
all the ear marks T>f being a dividend
payer from the start.—Anchorage
