One \nof the great parts about these two volumes is that \nCongress had James Taylor write about the mines \nEast of the Rocky Mountains, which are separately \npaginated in the back of each of the two volumes. \nThis work was a landmark work, a pure and absolute \nnecessity for the metals and mining investment \nbusinesses. Here, Congress hired a Treasury agent working in \nCalifornia during the Gold Rush known for his good work and \nperseverance. These two volumes centered on major ore deposits \nof the late 1860s inclusive of the California gold regions, Comstock, \nReese River etc. It also discussed other important metal mines, such as \ncopper. \nEst. $200-250 \nHWAC# 181672 \nLot# 1436 Raymond\u2019s Mineral Resources \nWest of the Rocky Mountains, 1869-1876 \nEight volumes comprising 1869-1876, from \nthe first report of the Mineral Commissioner to \nthe Eighth Report by Ross Raymond. Raymond \nwas a graduate of the Freiberg School of \nMines. He followed in the footsteps of J. Ross \nBrowne, who wrote the 1867 and 1868 volumes, found elsewhere \nin this catalog. Browne was unable to get paid for his work for the \nfederal government who subsequently let he, and later Raymond, have \nprivate publishers print their books under different titles. Both men \nused New York publishers such as Ford, and others. Book collectors \nwill note that the spines for these volumes are very often, if not \nmost of the time, mismarked with the year on the outside. The key \nis to look at the title page and ascertain the \u201cfirst annual report\u201d etc. \nProfessional researchers consider these works as pure gold. Their \ntriple indexes are critically important. These reports not only discuss \nmines, but geology, production, employment, ancillary businesses, \nmill and mine designs, monetary factors guiding metal prices and \neverything you ever wanted to know about mining, milling, timber and \nmetals.See full description online. \nEst. $500-700 \nHWAC# 181670 \nLot# 1437 Silver and Gold by Raymond, \nPrivate Publishing, 1873, Rare \nRare 1873 \nprivately published Silver and Gold, an account \nof the mining and metallurgical industry of the \nUS... by Rossiter Raymond.

In this case, as well as Raymond, Burchard visited different \nmining districts each year, such that many districts have no reports \nduring various years. As you can imagine, it was difficult to get \naround in 1880, thus Burchard had to pick and choose where he went, \nknowing full well that if he overdid it, the fed would not pay him, like \nthey left Raymond and Browne out in the dark for some of their work. \nThis is another \u201cmust-have\u201d for any mining historian or professional. \nThe 1884 volume has been rebound.

Certificate is 8 \n1\/2 x 6 1\/2 inches. Extremely rare. The IXL was one of the earliest \nand richest claims made in Alpine County. The IXL was discovered \nin summer, July 1, 1861 (the same day as the Buckeye No. One was \ntaken up); describing the location of the lower IXL tunnel, just 537 \nfeet from the higher-up Accacia (per Chalmers\u2019 Exchequer Officials, \n1871-2, May 22, 2871, p. 48-49; 54; 56; 67). IXL was located 1,700 feet \nlower down the Canyon than Exchequer, which was higher up (1871- \n2 Private p. 535, March 21, 1873). A later report indicates that the \ndiscoverers of this mine \u2018are said to have taken out over $50,000 from \na space 40 feet long and 22 feet high, within 50 feet of the surface\u2019 in \n1861, and that 1,000 tons milled in 1863 averaged $250 a ton by assay \n(but milled at $125 a ton). (Jan. 1922, Report of State Mineralogist). \nThe IXL was mentioned in the Letters of Henry Eno, \u201cIn 1867, the IXL \nSuperintendent [probably Slaven ] was telling Henry Eno that the lode \n\u00f1 which had produced $18,000 to $20,000 until the lode pinched out \na year and a half before, was now back into a \u201cwell-defined lode of 8 \nfeet wide of the very richest kind of ore\u201d and he wished he had money \nto buy stock (Letters of Henry Eno, p. 160). In May he noted, \u201cAt Silver \nMt. there is a mine called the IXL (I excel) which has also struck a \nvery rich lode, but they try to keep it secret. But have got so many to \nhelp keep it that it has leaked out.\u201d (p. 163, May 15, 1867). Chalmers, \nthe famous (well, here in Alpine) mining capitalist who represented \na London consortium of investors and siphoned British investor \nmoney into the mines here in Alpine over a twenty-year period, who \nbecame interested in the I.X.L. in 1871. Chalmers says it is to the IXL \nthat Alpine Co. was indebted for its very existence, saying the IXL \u201cin \n1862-3 created no small excitement in mining circles and gave birth to \nthe town of Silver Mountain\u201d (1871-2 \u201cPrivate\u201d p. 49 and p. 535). \nEst. \n$300-500 \nHWAC# 194060","53 \nView complete catalog, Register, and Bid online at \n FHWAC.com \nDAY 1 \n Sat, Mar 1 \nStocks & Bonds \nLot# 1473 \n Silver Mountain, California \nLady \nFranklin Stock Certificate # 20 (G.T.

(Burchard, 1884.) The 1860s were an interesting chapter \nin Montana mining history. Henry Comstock, who would later go on \nto discover the Comstock Lode, was living in Butte at the time. J.

He was a natural born \nleader. His father-in-law, Chief Mangas Coloradas, who was chief of \nthe Mimbreno band, helped him foster these skills. Through this \nconnection, Cochise would gain more influence over the Chiricahua \nApache. Cochise began experiencing intense stomach pains and could \nnot always eat. In 1874, he died of what was likely stomach cancer. \nThe whereabouts of his grave are still unknown, though it is thought to \nbe somewhere in his Stronghold. Cochise was one of the Chiricahua\u2019s \nmost effective leaders during the time of the Apache Wars.

It was also one of the \nmost costly wars in U.S. history. \nAccording to some estimates it cost $10,000 (about $300,000 today) \nper warrior to subdue the Modocs in battle. The Modoc warriors \ntotaled between 50 and 60, while there were as many as 1000 U.S. \ntroops at the height of the conflict. The war lasted six months, from \nNovember 29, 1872 to June 1, 1873, although tensions leading to the \nconflict began much earlier. Much of the war was centered around \nCaptain Jack\u2019s Stronghold, a natural lava fortress characterized by deep \ntrenches and small caves. The Stronghold was named for the Modocs\u2019 \nwar leader Keintpoos, or Captain Jack as he was known to the settlers. \nSome 150 Modoc men, women, and children lived in the Stronghold \nfor five months of the war, including the harsh winter months. By the \nwar\u2019s end, the fatalities included 53 U.S. soldiers, 17 civilians, 2 Warm \nSprings Scouts, 5 Modoc women and children, and 15 Modoc warriors, \nfive of which were killed in battle. The Modocs who had attacked the \npeace commissioners were imprisoned at Fort Klamath, where they \nwere tried and convicted of murder. On October 3, 1873, Captain Jack, \nSchonchin John, Black Jim, and Boston Charley were hanged. Barncho \nand Sioux had their sentences commuted by President Grant and \nwere sent to Alcatraz.

The combatants were warriors \nof the Lakota Sioux, Northern Cheyenne, and Arapaho tribes, battling \nmen of the 7th Regiment of the US Cavalry, along with their Crow, and \nArikara scouts. The Battle of the Little Bighorn has come to symbolize \nthe clash of two vastly dissimilar cultures: the buffalo\/horse culture \nof the northern plains tribes, and the highly industrial based culture \nof the United States. This battle was not an isolated confrontation, \nbut part of a much larger strategic campaign designed to force the \ncapitulation of the non reservation Lakota and Cheyenne. In 1868, \nafter fierce fighting from 1865-1867 between U.S. Army personnel \nand Lakota and Cheyenne warriors, several Lakota leaders agreed to \nsign the Treaty of Fort Laramie. This treaty created a large reservation \nfor the Lakota in the western half of present-day South Dakota; the \nLakota\u2019s beloved Black Hills area. The United States wanted tribes to \ngive up their nomadic life which brought them into conflict with other \nIndians, white settlers and railroads. Agreeing to the treaty meant \naccepting a more stationary life and relying on government-supplied \nsubsidies.

Corral pitted lawmen against members \nof a loosely organized group of cattle rustlers and horse thieves called \nthe Cowboys on October 26, 1881. While lasting less than a minute, \nthe gunfight has been the subject of books and films into the 21st \ncentury. Taking place in the town of Tombstone in Arizona Territory, \nthe battle has become one archetype of the American Old West. \nThe gunfight was the result of a long-simmering feud between five \noutlaws (including two sets of brothers) and four representatives of \nthe law, including three brothers. The trigger for the event was the \nlocal marshal\u2019s decision to enforce a city ordinance that prohibited \nthe carrying of weapons into town. To enforce that ordinance, the \nlawmen would have to disarm the Cowboys. Among the lawmen were \nthree brothers, Virgil, Wyatt, and Morgan Earp, as well as Wyatt\u2019s close \nfriend Doc Holliday. As Deputy U.S. Marshal and Town Marshal, Virgil \nwas in charge, and it was his decision to enforce the ordinance that led \nto the shoot out. His two brothers and Doc Holliday were temporary \nassistant marshals. The Cowboys were a loosely-connected group of \noutlaws. In Tombstone at the time of the gunfight were five members \nof the Cowboys: Billy Claiborne, brothers Ike and Billy Clanton, and \nbrothers Tom and Frank McLaury. Despite its name, the gunfight did \nnot take place within or next to the O.K. Corral, which fronted Allen \nStreet and had a rear entrance lined with horse stalls on Fremont \nStreet. The shootout actually took place in a narrow lot on the side of \nC. S. Fly\u2019s photography studio on Fremont Street, six doors west of the \nO.K. Corral\u2019s rear entrance. Some members of the two opposing parties \nwere initially only about 6 feet (1.8 m) apart. About thirty shots were \nfired in thirty seconds. During that brief battle, three men were killed, \nthree were wounded, two ran away, and one fought but was unharmed. \nIke Clanton subsequently filed murder charges against the Earps and \nHolliday. After a thirty-day preliminary hearing and a brief stint in \njail, the defendants were shown to have acted lawfully. Many of the \nsources describing the events leading up to the gunfight and details \nof the gunfight itself conflict with each other. Newspapers of the day \nwere not above taking sides, and news reporting often editorialized \non issues to reflect the publisher\u2019s interests. John Clum, publisher of \nThe Tombstone Epitaph, had helped organize a \u201cCommittee of Safety\u201d \n(a vigilance committee) in Tombstone in late September 1881. He was \nelected as Tombstone\u2019s first mayor under the new city charter that \nyear. Clum and his newspaper tended to side with the interests of local \nbusiness owners and supported Deputy U.S. Marshal Virgil Earp. Harry \nWoods, the publisher of the other major newspaper, The Daily Nugget, \nwas an undersheriff to Behan. He and his newspaper tended to side \nwith Behan, the Cowboys (some of whom were part-time ranchers and \nlandowners) and the rural interests of the ranchers. \nMuch of what is known of the event is based on month-long preliminary \nhearings held afterward, generally known as the Spicer hearings. \nReporters from both newspapers covered the hearings and recorded \nthe testimony there and at the coroner\u2019s inquest, but only the reporter \nfrom the Nugget knew shorthand. The testimony recorded by the \ncourt recorder and the two newspapers varied greatly. According to \nthe Earps\u2019 version of events, the fight was in self-defense because the \nCowboys, armed in violation of local ordinance, defied a lawful order to \nhand over their weapons and drew their pistols instead. The Cowboys \nmaintained that they raised their hands, offered no resistance, and \nwere shot in cold blood by the Earps. Sorting out who was telling the \ntruth was difficult then and remains so to this day. Though usually \nopposing each other in their depiction of events, reporting by both \nthe Epitaph and the Nugget initially supported the lawmen\u2019s version \nof events. Woods, the publisher of the pro-Cowboy Nugget, was out of \ntown during the hearings, and an experienced reporter, Richard Rule, \nwrote the story. The Nugget staff had a close relationship with Behan, \nbut Rule\u2019s story, as printed in the Nugget the day after the shootout, \nbacked up the Earps\u2019 account. This varied widely from Behan\u2019s and \nthe Cowboys\u2019 later court testimony. Subsequent stories about the \ngunfight published in the Nugget after that day supported Behan\u2019s and \nthe Cowboys\u2019 view of events. Other stories in the Epitaph countered \nthe Nugget\u2019s later view entirely and supported the lawmen.\u201d from \nWikipedia.com 2.5\u201d right front tape repair.

Bill Dalton\u2019s name \nwas splashed across headlines \nas continuing the lawlessness that made his brothers infamous. He \nwas called the \u201cworst outlaw who ever stole a horse shot a man in \nthe Southwest!\u201d It is unknown how much Bill was involved with his \nbrothers\u2019 outlaw activities. He could not have participated in their first \ntwo robberies as he was in jail in California at the time. But Bill did join \nup with Bill Doolin after the Coffeyville affair to lead what was called \nthe Dalton Gang or the Dalton-Doolin Gang. This band of outlaws \ncontinued in the vein of Grat, Emmett and Bob Dalton, robbing the \nSanta Fe railroad, fighting a gun battle with deputy marshals at Ingalls \nand robbing the Woodward Station Agent. What made Bill\u2019s story \nslightly different than his brothers was that he was killed several \ntimes during his career. Newspaper reports of the Ingalls gunfight \nhad Bill wounded so seriously that he could not live. In April 1894 he \nwas again reported so badly shot up that he would die, this time as a \nresult of a shootout with Deputy William Carr at Sacred Heart mission. \nLater that same month, Bill Dalton was killed again, this time by a \nposse of seventeen U.S. deputy marshals. Two years after Bill\u2019s actual \ndeath he was captured in New York City and then committed suicide \nin Wyoming. Ironically, the real cause of Bill\u2019s death was a robbery in \nwhich he was not even personally involved. In May of 1894, the gang \nheld up a bank in longview, Texas, stealing $2,600. They immediately \nhad a posse on their trail, and in the weeks that followed, the robbers \neventually crossed over from Texas into Oklahoma, passing by the \narea where Bill Dalton lived with his family.

Although Charley had been out on raids \nwith James, Bob Ford was an eager new recruit. For protection, James \nasked the Ford brothers to move in with him and his family. James had \noften stayed with their sister Martha Bolton and, according to rumor, \nhe was \u201csmitten\u201d with her. By that time, Bob Ford had conducted secret \nnegotiations with Missouri Governor Thomas T. Crittenden, planning \nto bring in the famous outlaw. Crittenden had made capture of the \nJames brothers his top priority; in his inaugural address he declared \nthat no political motives could be allowed to keep them from justice. \nBarred by law from offering a large reward, he had turned to the \nrailroad and express corporations to put up a $5,000 bounty for the \ndelivery of each of them and an additional $5,000 for the conviction \nof either of them. On April 3, 1882, after eating breakfast, the Fords \nand Jameses went into the living room before traveling to Platte City \nfor a robbery. From the newspaper, James had just learned that gang \nmember Dick Liddil had confessed to participating in Wood Hite\u2019s \nmurder. He was suspicious that the Fords had not told him about it. \nRobert Ford later said he believed that James had realized they were \nthere to betray him.

At the dawn of the Revolution, he \nwas serving in garrison at Amiens and in 1790 he was commissioned \nas a sous-lieutenant. The next year Desfourneaux was promoted to \nlieutenant and then in November of 1791 he was elected capitaine in \nthe 3rd Battalion of Volunteers of Pas-de-Calais. Only two months later \nhe was promoted to lieutenant colonel of the battalion. \nIn July of 1792 Desfourneaux embarked for Saint-Domingue in the \nCaribbean. The following January he was named military commander \nof the arrondissement of Saint-Marc. Desfourneaux next assaulted \nand took the camp of Thilorier and then he attacked the post of \nOuanaminte where he was wounded by a shot. In February of 1793 he \nwas promoted to colonel of the 48th Infantry and he went on to seize \nFort Le Sec later. Desfourneaux continued to rise, for in May he was \npromoted to g\u00c8n\u00c8ral de brigade and named commander-in-chief of \nthe Army of the West in Saint-Domingue. Throughout the rest of 1793, \nhe successfully drove the Spanish out of the French part of the island, \nbut in the process he received four wounds. In 1794 Desfourneaux \nand his army seized the fort of Cr\u2019te Sale but in June they lost Port-au- \nPrince. That August he returned to France and then in December he \nwas again promoted, this time to g\u00c8n\u00c8ral de division. \nDesfourneaux\u2019s next assignment was to return to Saint-Domingue and \nserve under General Lavaux. Unfortunately he was unable to make it \nthere and his ship was forced to stop at the United States for supplies. \nAfter giving up on reaching Saint-Domingue, Desfourneaux returned \nto Brest in France. In March of 1796 he set out again on the frigate \nLa M\u00c8duse and this time he successfully reached his destination, \ndisembarking in May. That June he was sent to the Windward Isles to \ninspect the troops and then in 1797 he was named commander at Port- \nau-Prince and then governor. In September of 1797 Desfourneaux left \nSaint-Domingue to improve his health and he arrived at Rochefort in \nFrance in January of 1798. Five months later in June of 1798 he was \nnamed a special representative of the government to Guadeloupe \nand he arrived there in November. In 1799 Desfourneaux returned to \nFrance where he was ordered to organize the depot of the isle of R\u00c8. \nIn the year 1800, Desfourneaux was made available to the Minister of \nMarine and he was given command of the reinforcements formed to \nhelp French troops in Egypt. Setting sail in February of 1801, he and his \nforce were intercepted by the British in the Strait of Gibraltar. A naval \nbattle commenced and Desfourneaux was wounded in the hip during \nthe fighting, with he and his men taken prisoner. However, before long \nhe was released by the British on parole and he returned to France. \nThat October Desfourneaux was ordered to take an expeditionary \ncorps to Saint-Domingue and he arrived at Cap Fran\u00c1ais in February \nof 1802. In March Desfourneaux led his men and seized Gona\u00d4ves, \nforced General Morpas to surrender, and then defeated Toussaint \nLouverture at Piacenza. Shortly thereafter he fell quite ill and was \nsent to the Spanish part of the island, and in August General Leclerc \nordered Desfourneaux to return to France for his health. \nDesfourneaux retired from the army in 1803 but his military career \nwasn\u2019t quite finished. In 1808 he was named a Knight of the Empire \nand in 1811 he was elected a deputy of Yonne to the Corps L\u00c8gislatif, a \nposition he would hold until 1815. Desfourneaux was named a Baron \nof the Empire in 1813 and after Napoleon\u2019s abdication in 1814 the \nrestored Bourbons gave him the Grand Cordon of the Legion of Honor. \nDuring the Hundred Days of 1815 when Napoleon resumed power, \nDesfourneaux served in the chamber as a representative of Joigny. \nThat June he was ordered to command part of the defense of Paris and \nthen in August he was put on non-activity. \nThis is indeed very rare and unique piece of ephemera from one of \nNapoleon\u2019s top generals, but the one time governor of Haiti.
