company with a stranger and the narrator would visit the mine get out the ore and taking it to a cave would there coin it she further states that they were generally engaged at this from one to two weeks and that iliey made two or three trips during the year to this miue this woman says the uil-ii paid her s100 per annum to keep theii secret and ihat notwithstanding the fad thai cochee died ten
