j shaft. They invested considerable
' money in buying land rights sur-
rounding the shaft and prepared
j io remove any valuable ore it
J might contain.
I Reports on the va'ue of the ore
' from various metallurgical houses
range from "poor" to "very good,"
! the trio says. Barry, as spokes
man for the trio, admits the ven
ture is "quite a gamble" but says
"we are going into this thing for
' what there is in it."
Another shaft nearby, now filled
, up, also figures into their working
j plans.
"We're going to kick in the toe
j nf this pit and see what there is
; in it," Barry said. "Old timers
I say there was a tunnel near here
and there was a space for a small
dwelling house . . . We shall see."
Meanwhile the reported sold
!'md has spread through Carter
County and has caused consider
able interest and excitement. The
irio report they spend as much
lime answering the questions of
the curious as working their claim.
The find of the Carter trio is
not the first lime gold fever has
..truck upper Tennessee. About 20
years ago similar reports came from
nc.irhy Unicoi county where an old
prospector regularly broght "gold
dust" to Johnson City for shipment.

In catering to one of the last all

Ardalh recalled that they met
