There are also occasional discussions of the company's relationship with other mining firms, including water leases and operating facilities. Persons represented by 5 letters or more: Joseph H. Mooser (14 letters); Henry Pichoir (68 letters); and Lester Ludyah Robinson (5 letters). Notable items include two letters from Lester Robinson to Superintendent Mather, April 9, 1890 (HM 51127) and June 23, 1890 (HM 51128), which discuss plans for water sampling and the construction of tunnels for water diversion to guard against run-off.
