Clayton had sent Julius articles of the White Pine Still very active in mining ventures, I had urgent business Rush, and those, in conjunction of what he read in the there, and decided to take some time in the Lincoln County Minneapolis and St. Paul newspapers pushed him out the Court House looking for anything I could find on Turrill. As door into the middle of the White Pine Rush. a veteran of hundreds of mining title searches, I knew right where to start. Once in Nevada, Julius learned that small ingots were a form of a western trophy, a miner’s custom that went back With the assumptions presented above garnered from decades, if not more. Ingots were commonly given as experience and known history, I first delved into Lincoln presents, and the newspapers noted the custom: County Mining records.

valuable information. Turrill may not have been a miner or “International City”? Nobody’s ever heard of it. I called Stan prospector when he got to Pioche.

With several business directories for The XRF analyses appear to completely confirm the Bristol Nevada published from 1870-1875, I had not found Turrill location, which was primarily a silver/copper district. in a single one. Maybe I’d find Turrill had bought mining property in the Bristol Mining District. The Bristol silver/ gold deposits were discovered about 1870 by John Hyatt and S.P. Hardy. The miners formed a mining district on April 10, 1871. The Mining Laws of the District occupied the first pages of the book. But no Turrill. He didn’t buy or sell a mining claim. Way up on top of some two story file cabinets were two old worn out books that looked like ledgers. They were out of place, far too high for any normal person to reach. What the heck, I thought, as I grabbed a stool, and stretched to my full length just to reach a corner and scootch them out so I could grab them. Wow – these were the very first two Recorder’s Books for Nye County, an adjacent county. Nye County was one of the original Nevada counties, and Lincoln County was created in 1866 when Nevada acquired land that had been part of Utah. Somehow, these books were never physically transferred to the Nye County Courthouse. Inside these books are the very first records of Pioche. They contained all of the mining claim and property deeds and transfers. While it started as a Nye County Book, it continued to be used for Pioche and surrounds, hence its “ownership” by Lincoln County. Here, on page 351 of the Nye County Records is a deed to Turrill from David Wilkins for the Wilkins Saloon in International City on February 17, 1874. 15 A later thorough search of Angel’s work revealed a misinterpretation of International City, as well as the county (one again.) Angel called the place “National City, and listed it in Nye County, not the proper Lincoln County. 171

Anode copper comes from the last stage of purification at a copper smelter. Oxygen is blown into molten copper in an anode furnace to oxidize and remove impurities from the melt. This is poured into large flat molds to produce copper anodes that are then purified further at a refinery with electrolysis. High currents of electricity move copper atoms from the anode through a solution of copper sulfate and sulfuric acid to be deposited onto a thin copper starter sheet. The cathode becomes thicker as pure copper builds up. The final copper cathode is 99.99% pure or better. William Mayrsohn Collection Est. $100-150 HWAC# 132520 172 May 2021
