THE SPRING GULLY T.M. COMPANY.
Mr W. E. Clifton, legal manager of the Spring Gully Tin Mining Company,
has handed us the following report under date of October 3rd, 1890: —
Yours of the 27th to hand. I will start prospecting on the 20-acre block
as soon as possible. Since my last we have been engaged in stripping and
sluicing for the week. I have raised and dressed 20 cwt. ready for the
market, so now I have got 43 cwt. ready, and I am in hopes of being able
to give you a fair output every week from this. We had the greatest
amount of rain that has ever been on the tinfields today at eleven
o'clock, and it flooded all the gully, so water is plentiful now. I will
forward this tin to Bunbury by the first team I can get, and I will give
you a further report of what tin I get by the end of next week.
