MR. RICHARD F. STALEY, Idaho Springs, OoL^ Dear Friend Dick: '^*^ *..s New York, MarcH 9, 190b. I saw Ran Shields to-day and he told me he had read a letter from you stating you had struck High Grade Ore in one of the new claims, and the assays ranged from $27.60 on the surface to $46.80 at two feet depth, and $79.20 at five feet. It was no great surpsiBe to me as I expected something of this sort sooner or later, having spent three days with you at the mine, and knowing of the recent big strikes in this district. But I was awful glad to hear th^ good news, not for myself alone, but for your sake. Knowing how much of your own good cash you have spent in promoting the interests of the stockholders, and the sacrifices you have made in refusing time for your act, and devoting it to this company free of charge, and doing about four men's work,, and isolating yourself from civilization. The letter stated that you proposed selling the balance of this block of stock at no increase in price. Don't you think thct is a mistake? It was a good thing at 25 cents per share when it was a low grade proposition which took time and money to develop. But with this High Grade cropping up, the vein widening and values increasing at every foot, I can't see the sense in selling any more stock at that figure. But of course you know best. I suppose this sounds as though I was trying to dictate because I am a wee bit of a stockholder. But I know that you know me well enough not to look at it in that light. But I know your leaning toward philanthropy, and how you have' been repaid in some instances for your generosity; thus the suggestion. Well, Dick, my main reason for writing is to have you hold out one thousand shares for Jno. F. Sully. You know him. He is one of my closest pals, and I want him to be in at the killing. Am writing him to-night to get aboard before it is too late. I expect the stock will go quickly at the present price. If he don't take it I will. v Will see you when you arrive in New York. Hope this will reach you before you leave. Your old Pal, . H. a HAYES.. \ ..,''■„;'■.., Stock can be paid for in five or ten monthly installments.
