Letter to Charles Milton Terrell
Manuscripts
This manuscript is Clayton's report on mining properties in Silverton, Colorado. His conclusion is that "a majority of the locations will warrant exploration" and "a few are worthless." He also states that "it will require all of next season in active development of a few of the best claims before the question of reduction works can be intelligently determined."
