"Within the past week, based on the rumours of the Kenty discoverey, apâ€" proximately 35 claims have been staked and recorded a the Sudbury Mining Recorder/s office. Prospectors returnâ€" ing from Swayze township report that among those who are in the field was Austin Dumond and F.

"We are just beginning to tap the resources of the north," said ansther mines department official. "There is every reason to believe these latest disâ€" coveries will rank with the sensational strikes of the past." A despatch from Sudbury also has the following:â€" Until more information is recsived Mr. Gibson was reluctant to estimate the possibilities of the strikes, but he admitted that they appeared to be rich ones. Prospectors from all over the North eccuntry are reported to be rushing inâ€" to the newly discovered gold country, and already about 125 claims have been staked at Long Lake and 80 in Swaze Township.
