Contemporary flexible ribbed black cloth post-binder nickel plated screwposts at gutter margins minor edgewear VG. This series of photographs captures the historic gold mining by the last gold dredge to operate on Foots Creek in Southern Oregon on the property of Edward Dole. Several dredges and placer mining operations mined Foots Creek from the 19th well into the 20th Century with one dredge owned by the Rogue River Gold Mining Co. known as the Ferry Dredge dredged both forks of Foots Creek until 1935 when it was moved to Graves Creek. Under the direction of “Wicks the Boss†this dredge was brought in unassembled by railroad in 1939 and “this was his 35th dredge.†The photos show the steel hull mass boom erecting the steel framework framing the steel gantries for the dredge installing the winches as well as the massive 67 bucket line ladder built by New York Engineering Co. Yonkers NY. The newly constructed dredge shown here proceeded to work it’s way up the creek digging 20 feet below the water line and moved 4000 yards daily through the screening and wash plant with conveyor belts stacking the tailings behind. In March 1941 just months before the attack on Pearl Harbor the dredge was dismantled and moved to another location by the Murray Dredging co. although mounds and walls of rock paralleling the creek still offer visible signs of its operation.

Gray 1810-1889 who traveled to the Lapwai Mission in Lewiston ID in 1836 where he was the Nez Perce secular agent and she subsequently later married Jacob Kamm 1823-1912 pioneering Oregon industrialist and entrepreneur. First edition of this exceedingly scarce promotional offprint for the placer gold mining concentrator for “float or flour gold†developed by A.D. Clarke in the early 1880’s at an Idaho gold mining operation. The invention required parallel bars of iron an 1/8th of an inch apart bolted in place allowing water to flow through a sluice from a hydraulic mining operation with good gentle water flow and then would be directed through a series of tanks fitted with sage brush to collect the particles of gold and then across a series of riffles to pick up still finer gold particles. There was a mini gold rush in Clatsop OR in late-1884-1885 after J.M. Weed filed a placer claim for his mine Gertrude on Rock Creek in May 1885 which claimed loose valuable material in gravel on Rock Creek followed by a plethora of gold miners staking claims in the area and by 1889 the Rock Creek Mining District was formed. Maggie Gray b. 1853 was the youngest daughter of William H. Gray and served as postmaster in Olney OR from about 1878-1884 according to government publications but sadly there are no production figures for any of the mines and no further census or government records for Maggie after 1884.

29149 March 1930; 'Trent House Main Street Georgetown'. 10 pages on 5 8vo leaves. In good condition but with a few large blots. The first part of a letter by a writer who appears to be English. Straight out of B. Traven. The author wants Joan to join him and Gwen in partnership with Hamerly. 'Hamerly is down here from one of his expeditions & we became friendly through his having lived & travelled widely in the Paraguayan Chaco. He is rather what the Americans call a roughneck but he has a most exhaustive knowledge of South America having done some tremendous journeys right through Brazil has had some extraordinary adventures which he tells amusingly in his broken English . He is like a character in an adventure novel . has made personal friends of all the big men in the mining fields the Venezuala Generals & Colonels &c & also of big Govt officials at Caraccas & he has obtained a concession of very rich gold lands immediately the other side of the frontier which he has not yet had time to work. The terms of his concession permit him to shoot anybody who goes on his land. .' There is 'a small shop at Five Stars run by a Chinaman Che Fat who could make a profit selling at 5 cents per lb cheaper . At Arakaka there is another Chinese store just sold out to Che Fat by Ho Shoo Hamerly is in partnership with Camizoulia wealthy Portugee of Georgetown who sends up the goods he requires . He wants to extend by establishing a permanent store on the frontier & to do that it is necessary to squeeze out the Chinks . I have discussed the proposition with two experienced men & they both agree that the only sound way to do gold mining is to establish it on the basis of a bush store which provides cash to carry on prospecting till creeks with rich pay are found. . If a bush negro comes in with plenty of gold & buys his provisions dirt cheap he feels he has been well treated & is expansive & wants to buy gaudy useless things that attract him & then does not mind how much he pays for it as he is totally without any standard of comparison on which to form an estimate of it's sic value .' More in the same vein on such subjects as gold mining 'in the immediate vicinity of Arekaka'. 9 March 1930; 'Trent House | Main Street | Georgetown'. unknown

180052601Canada 1800. Graphite pen-and-ink and grey wash on wove paper watermarked "W. Elgar 1796". 13 5/8 x 20 inches. Corners clipped outside the image verso toned. Graphite pen-and-ink and grey wash on wove paper watermarked "W. Elgar 1796". 13 5/8 x 20 inches. Along the falls of a tree-lined river two First Nations men are pulling a canoe into the water directed by another in an elaborate feather headdress; a wigwam with mother and child is on the same shore to their left; across the river a longhouse and structure for smoking fish with another group of native people can be seen; at the far left a First Nations man is standing in his canoe fishing with a pole in the water just below the rapids.<br /> <br /> Although the 1796 watermark on the paper is consistent with drawings by Heriot the unfinished quality of this work make attribution difficult. However it is somewhat reminiscent of a smaller grisaille watercolor signed by Heriot titled FALLS OF THE POQUISQUE ON THE RIVER ST JOHN on verso sold at Waddington's March 15 2018 lot 137.<br /> <br /> Furthermore this scene is reminiscent of one described by Heriot in his Travels in the Canadas 1807 in which he describes Native American fishing on the cacasdes of St. Mary nine miles below the entrance to Lake Superior: "It is at the bottom of the rapids and even among their billows which foam with ceaseless impetuosity that innumerable quantities of excellent fish may be taken from the spring until the winter; the species which is found in the greatest abundance is denominated by the savages atticameg or white fish; the Michilimakinac trout and pickerell are likewise caught here. These aflford a principal means of subsistence to a number of native tribes. No small degree of address as well as strength is employed by the savages in catching these fish; they stand in an erect attitude in a birch canoe and even amid the billows they push with force to the bottom of the waters a long pole at the end of which is fixed a hoop with a net in the form of a bag into which the fish is constrained to enter. They watch it with the eye when it glides among the rocks quickly ensnare it and drag it into the canoe. In conducting this mode of fishing much practice is required as an inexperienced person may by the efforts which he is obliged to make overset the canoe and inevitably perish."<br /> <br /> Trained by Paul Sandby at the Royal Military Academy Woolwich London Heriot worked as a clerk for Board of Ordnance. "In 1792 Heriot was posted to Quebec and promoted clerk of the cheque in the Ordnance department. Heriot was to remain in Lower Canada until 1816 except apparently for two periods of absence in 1796-97 and in 1806. His first years at Quebec are not well documented. Sketches record visits in and about Quebec and Montreal perhaps on Ordnance business. In November 1792 he published a sketch of Jersey in the Quebec Magazine and the following year he prepared a view of Quebec perhaps also intended for publication. When he returned to Britain in 1796 he resided in London travelled to the south coast and made at least one sketching foray into Wales . A watercolour prepared from his sketches of Wales and two Canadian views were accepted by the Royal Academy of Arts for exhibition in the spring. Heriot probably sailed for Lower Canada soon afterwards taking notes and making sketches on the voyage. The impact of his visit to Britain was considerable. While there he had been stimulated by the art he had seen and by his success as an artist. He returned with a fresh enthusiasm for the Canadas; he began to read about their past and to make elaborate notes and numerous sketches of the places he visited and the peoples he encountered. His sojourn abroad had affected his artistic vision of the Canadas; his drawings and water-colours assumed a new confidence and his landscape forms developed a new strength and grandeur. In London he had probably studied the simply handled and remarkably strong water-colours of younger British artists such as Thomas Girtin Joseph Mallord William Turner and John Varley. Either in Britain or in Lower Canada he had also become familiar with Lieutenant George Bulteel Fisher's Six views of North America . London 1796. He was influenced by this work especially by Fisher's use of the Picturesque in depicting Canadian landscape" Dictionary of Canadian Biography. unknown

Although the "Da Wen Hua Da Geming" "Cultural Revolution" was later brutally put down throughout China by the People's Liberation Army with much force and large numbers of deaths the resistant anarchistic "Hong Wei Bing" "Chinese Red Guards" continued their chaotic run until the Mao's death. . Original photographs of the "Hong Wei Bing" "Chinese Red Guards" and the "Da Wen Hua Da Geming" "Cultural Revolution" are RARE and not commonly found. Therefore this group of original period photographs are a stunning primary and historical record of the early actions and events. . CONDITION: The group of photographs are in excellent condition no defects. Each comes with a red printed caption in Chinese tipped on to the edge of the photograph. We note that at the beginning of each caption paragraph the first character or perhaps a number was scratched out. This does not detract from the overall capton. . DATE: Circa 1966-1967 There is a printed date found on photo #4. showing these photos to be from 1966-1967 period which is the beginning of the "Cultural Revolution" & "Hong Wei Bing" "Red Guards" movement. . Color photos are posted to our website. . REFERENCES: . en-wikipedia-org/wiki/Red_Guards_China en-wikipedia-org/wiki/Mao_Zedong . . unknown
