South Hite Gold Mining Company Records

This collection consists primarily of the correspondence between William H. Widman and J. F. Towle, both of whom worked for the South Hite Mining Company. J. F. Towle, the assistant secretary, frequently wrote to William H. Widman, the superintendent at the Hites Cove mine. Their correspondence mainly covered stock transactions and reports of how the company was doing financially. In addition to this there are letters from stockholders to Widman, a few personal pieces of correspondence, and a Photostat copy of The Hite Mine by James Duncan Hague (1836-1908).
