D. Miles, prominent mining man, who passed away on the train last week while on the way from Winnipeg to Toronto recalls to H. A. Preston, oldâ€"timer of the North, the foresight evidenced by Mr. Miles in reâ€" gard to the Dome Mines in the early days. Mr. Preston writes:â€""Mr. Mileés had the greatest faith in the Porcupine in the very early days. He was the first man to pay a large sum for shares in Dome Mine. He paid me twenty thousand dollars for one thousand shares and the next day offered me twentyâ€"five thousand for another thouâ€" sand shares. At the time there were just a fow men working at the Dome, and Hollinger shares were just adverâ€" tised on the exchange at three dollars and fifty cents. I was going to accept Mr. Miles‘ second offer and put the second twentyâ€"five thousand in Hollinâ€" ger, and thus have two chances of makâ€" ing a fortune. But everyone, including my friends, said I would be a fool to do that. If I had listened to no one but had gone on and taken the second offer by Mr. Miles, I could have got three hundred thousand in a short time for the Hollingeor, and in eight years the Hollinger would have begn worth two million, two hundred thouâ€" sand dollars, including dividends. Mr. Miles certainly had great faith in Dome when he was ready to pay fortyâ€"five thousand dollars for two thousand shares in less than a year after it was staked. Just befor> selling the shares to Mr. Miles, I was in Buffalo, N.Y., and just for fun I offered Dome at one dollar a share. Not a soul would look at it, not even at fifty cents a share."
